Front passenger wing removal trouble!

Post by palo123 » Sun Feb 07, 2016 3:50 pm

Hi all, I have been trying to remove my passenger front wing on my 1984 sj410 soft top but am struggling as all the bolts are seized and just bur when I try unscrewing them.
Does anyone know of a good way of removing them without drilling out?
I found a square head bit for cross head screws which worked on the door hinge bolts but it sheared as it wasn't impact. Has anyone used easy out drill bits or know if they are any good?

Any help appreciated!
