Whats the best way to get seized peg bolts out of the frame. One side came out nice and easy the other i broke 3 allen sockets on. Will heating the frame help any. Im stuck on this one too. Thanks in advance, Brian

You can try heating the bolt with a propane torch. Just don't over do it and heat the frame to much.

trying putting a socket extension on it and hit it hard a few times... if it was locktited in then this may break the locktite. Heat will also help too

I've had this happen before too and this may sounds stupid, but try tightening it a little first. This will also break the loctite loose, so hopefully you can then loosen it.

Yea KYMxers got it when i worked at sears auto we used to tighten the lug nuts that would be stuck and then loosen and they would come off
