I have one lower fender bolt seized in my fork. I've boogered the hex opening last week.
So I shot it with PB Blaster and put it back together for the time being.
I'll be pulling out my bag of tricks for this bolt but I'd welcome any input from those who may have a good process.
My intention at this moment is, when I get to it, to heat the fork leg a bit, smack the bolt repeatedly, and jam a.triple square drive in there to try for a minor miracle.
In a pinch, I can ride it to work and weld on a nut. But that's a potentially destructive move given that the plastic fender tab is right under the bolt.
All ideas will be welcome, including sarcastic jabs.
Thanks
