[QUOTE="Xenu, post: 1369101, member: 110633"] Hello everyone, I purchased a 1999 kdx 200 about a month ago and immediately found this site the best place to get info on all things kdx. While putting on a heavier rear springs i noticed my linkage bearings were shot. So i ordered new ones and began to install them when i ran into a problem. The bolt holding the linkage knuckle to the frame is seized to the inside bearing race. The bolt will spin freely but but it wont pull out. I notice someone on here i think mentioned using a torch to heat it up. My question is do i heat just the end of the bolt? Or the whole knuckle? What penetrating lube should i use? I'm using a large c-clamp to try to push the bolt free, and a punch and hammer to knock it free. Are there any other recommendations to apply force to the bolt? Thanks for any help!!! [/QUOTE]
