TwoBobRob:
You may end up sacrificing the bolts,  but you can wind them out a turn or two, steady the frame and then beat the crap out of them.  Something will move..... ;)   Check to see if the gap has changed, wind the bolt out another turn or two and continue.  Noisy, but effective  :)

TOMMY2WHEEL:
Crank puller or removal tool are the best to use. they seperate the arm from the shaft evenly with minimal ware to the splines or wedges. use what the crank manufacture suggest.

weston:
there was no way of getting the one from my old bike. i had to saw through the spindle to get it off..
