Mine took me two full weeks to remove with heat, hammers, drills, penetrating fluids, blood, sweat. I was stunned that the cases survived, just about unscathed.

It was a front engine mounting bolt on this one, some numpty many years ago had replaced the original bolt and fitted a stainless steel bolt because he fitted crash bars. It took Trig and his mate a very long time to remove it, because it had corroded and sort of welded itself to the bolt hole. Much swearing went on that day  ;D
