Remove the truck from the board so you can get access from all sides. Stick the wheel and therefore the end of the bolt in an ice/salt bath. Let it soak for a good half hour. Put the lockscrew back in just a bit to block the hole. Put your heat gun on the hanger without hitting the bolt. Try 60 seconds, then 90, etc.

Wasn’t worth the effort for a real trolling.

Are they actually replying to emails!?!? I thought they went all enertion And didnt reply. You can always use an angle grinder to cut the shoulder bolt and get the wheel. Just send the bolt stuck in the hanger

AHHHH fuckkkkkkk…

Ok. I had this. It was my fault and unrelated, but I put it in the freezer for an hour, wheel and all, then put the hanger in a vice and removed the axle.

Destroyed the hanger. But I got it out.

That hanger is most likely fucked BTW.

In that case, you could try putting the hanger in a vice, then use vice grips to pull and unscrew the shoulder bolt out.
