| Post subject: | remove the frame from the hulls |
I have a 14 hobie cat and I want to take the trampolene frame off of the hulls. I removed the bolts and two of them came right out but the other two are frozen in the holders with time and corrison. I put wd40 and oil around them but they want move at all. Does anyone have any suggistions on what to use? |

You need penetrating oil ssuch as pb blaster. Spray it on and let it soak and respray over a few days. |

Is it the 2 bolts you cannot remove or the corner casting from the pylon? If the latter, I had to use a rubber mallet and hit on the corner casting upwards to remove it. It would only budge a hair at a time, but it would move. It's an awkward angle to hit, so you can hit to hard either. |
