i'm using an old straight axle on a dart project of mine. i'm going to update the breaks and have to take some other parts of it apart. A lot of the bolts have been welded together painted over and all the fun stuff. i'v been reading about the hot/cold method of removing rusted bolts, would this work? i'm not looking to save anything except the axle and the springs. any ideas?

I have been having good results using a tig welder. Get just the bolt hot cool with air and rock it back and forth. Also used to remove broken bolts and rusted studs. Weld a nut on and cool it with air same method. Its been working for me. Mig welds are to brittle so don't try a mig.
