Stuck Roller Rockers

Any tips for getting rockers off shafts that were apparently over-torqued on the end bolts without destroying the shafts? The move just to the end and get stuck. I did take a small file and chamfer the holes but didn’t help. Was thinking about trying to put the “egg’d” ends in the vice with alum jaws and try to compress the shaft back into shape. Not real confident it’d work.


That’s a common thing when they have been torqued down beyond the recommended specs.
