Larry,
It is designed to only go on once. Once it is removed it is recommended to
be replaced. I removed mine with an impact air wrench. It took a while to
get it removed.
One thing at this point you need to record the torque specs. This is based
on the AMC tech manual. Unfortunatly I removed mine before finding this
out. I am not sure how your can record this if the bolt is seized, but
there are no torque specs for reinstallation. I often wonder if I got mine
to the correct specs.
