I'm tearing down a 400 EX right now and ran into a snag. For the life of me I can't seem to get the pivot bolt to free up and slide out. I've pulled these out of other bikes without a problem before but this one is not wanting to move at all.
I've oiled it, heated it, beat the crap out of it, and still it won't budge. I mean not even a little bit. It seems to be fused in there or something.
Anyway, any suggestions on what to try next? Also, if anyone has a pivot bolt laying around for sale let me know, lol. I was getting pretty mad at it so it's not going to be reusable at all, lol.
Thanks,
Dave
