Sort of Central to North Central Iowa | Trying to remove siezed bolts from the parallel linkages on the gangs of the Hiniker 1000. Tore one gang completely apart and pressed two bolts at home, took it to a welding shop to get the others removed. Did a little cultivating, realized some others needed attention (more than I thought). Tried to use the pump/cylinder out of an old inexpensive 2 ton floor jack (that had gotten twisted and salvaged) to power a home made press. I put it in place and pumped it until I couldn't pump the jack anymore. Anyone have any other suggestions that could help keep me from completely tearing it apart and taking it to the welding shop. I thought about heating the bushing (I tried that on the first gang to no avail) and finding a larger jack pump/cylinder. Thanks, Dave.
