Just tried this, i managed to get some mole grips on but the silver washer  turned rather than the bolt itself. I reckon i'm just gonna leave it before i launch it out of the garden.

lazychubs:
there looks like ya could move it a good 6 mm or so

The arm certainly moved down the spindle to leave some of the bolt protruding but when i squeezed the mole grips on to turn it, it was only the washer that went around, not the bolt.
Even if i did manage to remove the stuck bolt i reckon might next problem would be trying to get the arm off of the spindle.

lazychubs:
ya should be able to push the washer down
once bolt is off use the profile tool to push axle back thru arm

southern andy:
Will try again tomorrow with a clear head, i haven't  got a profile tool, looks like another job for a hammer.  :knuppel2: :knuppel2:
