I ran into a problem while attempting to remove the steering idler from my Austin Healey.
Good news bad news! I got the 1 1/8" nut off the idler shaft, however two of the three bolts holding the steering idler to the frame have broken off at the head. Any suggestions on how to continue? I have squirted a lot of PB Blaster on them and hit them with a flat bottom punch repeatedly using a small sledge hammer to no avail. I have ordered a new steering idler from AH Spares so the one on the car is expendable.
