Excellent point. You may run into some nicely seized bolts, but you
should be able to at least get things dismantled enough to get the parts
to a shop to get them out. I had one steering arm bolt that refused to
budge, and a seized lower bolt through the A-arms into the kingpin.
Apparently the grease passage had been plugged for years. I actually
managed to twist the head off of that bolt trying to get it to move. A
local suspension shop extracted both for me.
