[QUOTE="deadpool1, post: 441198, member: 21229"] well the frame is going to hit the metal recycle center, so is 100% expendable ! just drill the head off, [URL='https://www.ebay.com/itm/334743249999?mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&siteid=0&campid=5337789113&customid=&toolid=10001&mkevt=1']I have 90deg, drill bit adapter that can do that.[/URL] so far you were lucky most came off easy. I used smallest impact air gun they make and mine came off. (as you said slow ,easy take your time wins, and does. ) use top quality torx bits only, getting paint off the heads so Pen; Oil can get inside, and heat it and spray and let it cool and then Pen.. oil sucks into where you want. I only have done tail gate hinges, and working of bravery to get new wind shield door hinges, even SST. The counter sunk screw heads are a pain. good luck to you. and remove that fabric from the frame first. to gain access. for the drill out. mine were 5/16" bolts. so use drill the root size of the screw which is. size "F" drill, or 0.2570" a 1/4" drill bit works here. 0.25 this tool can be a life saver , owned your whole life. ( like working under dash?) hummmmm [ATTACH type="full"]122531[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
