Have been attempting to strip down my Trek Session 10 to replace all bearings... having a wee spot of bother with some of the bolts..
How do I remove the very bottom linkage from the frame... I have removed the non drive side bolt, but all the drive side bolt does is turn within the frame, it just won't come out at all.. see pic below
looks like I will have to take the frame up to the local engineering shop as some of the bolts had been badly rounded by removal attempts of previous owners..also a few of the bolts on the rear end triangle are seized beyond belief!

See if you can bang a larger size torx socket into the bolt heads as they look abit chewed the shock sometimes helps the bolt free abit.0
