[QUOTE="skidsteer.ca, post: 2359, member: 307"] With an ordinary nut or bolt , a impact (imho) is better at getting a stuborn fastener to come, without twisting it off. I hate allens , because so much force is concentrated on a very small diameter circle. Replacing it with a 12 point bolt might be an option, if it comes apart. I've welded a nut on top of a striped allen, as a last ditch effort to remove it. But this often takes several attempts. If you end up going there, use a nut with the largest bore possible, and a mig welder is far easier to get a goog weld in a tight spot then a stick machine. Hopefully you won't find out. If the bolt heads suffers some wear, be sure to replace them before reassembly. Maybe someone else can offer some better advice... Good luck Ken [/QUOTE]
