I’m guessing this thing has been stuck in there since way before I bought her. The threaded end is all buggered up from what appears to be some one else’s bolt battle trying to get it removed too.
I removed the Allen bolt from the pinch collar and the bolt didn’t have a nut on the threaded end due to the threads being such a mess.
I also took of the zirk so I don’t funk it up somehow too and now just need to figure out how to get the durn thang out.
Sprayed a hefty dose of Knocker Loose on the threaded end and let soak over night. Gave her a few whacks to see if it would indeed knock ‘er loose but no luck.
What is a Gal to do now my friends?
Press? Heat (if so where)? Tanerite?
Any suggestions are much appreciated.
Thanks
