As a long time mechanic, heat works well I heat up one side while penetrating oil on the other. SAFETY GLASSES AND EXTINSHER!! The heat will draw the oil down. Then Get the other side soilid, (A plate or something. A good hit on the nut to ,"Shock it" and see it that'll do it. I restored a '76 Yami 250 and had to cut off the head of the bolt. then drill it out. Assemble is easy, Here's a great tip. Mix 50/50 bearing grease and anti seize. Bearing brease won't desolve in water and well the never seize is great. I have a small grease gun I fill with this and do all my bearing, susp. parts with it good luck and remember patients, it's just dumb metal :) Joe 2001 KDX 200 2001 TTR 125 Boy "A"'s 1996 xr80 Boy "B"'s Some days your RC and some day your the berm [/QUOTE]
