Linkage

[redrider7202]

Trying to get it out of the bike. My swingarm bolt seems to be stuck, and won't budge. How in the world am i supposed to get the linkage out.

On here i just need to get number 8 out. Please help. I'm supposed to ride tomorrow and would rather be able to change these bearings before ridding tomorrow instead of just putting it all back together still a little sloppy.

Common problem. Heat, penetrating oil and hit and hit and hit and hit...
There's a thread or two around here on the topic.

What I did was undo the nut a bit and use a wheel brace on the nut and hammer to work the bolt back and forth until it came free. Took about 2 hours I think!
