[QUOTE="Manikm909, post: 1123041, member: 415764"] ARGH!!!!! So ive planned the day to work on this polar mount. All ready and in good spirits...until i hit a snag. I cannot get the PIVOT bolt out. The bolt, must have rusted/welded itself to the structure - not sure if the inside "barrel" is threaded, or just a hole - could just whack it>? I say this, because if i use my power wrench and set it clockwise/anti clock - the polar mount moves with it, rather than the central pivot bolt turning inside it so i can remove it. Ive tried heating with heat gun (not blow lamp) - gallons of wd40 - but it cannot get in where it needs to get probably. And now im on here, asking for help, lol i dont want to risk sheering the bold head off so thought id take some advice here. pics attached [/QUOTE]
