  • A friend wants me to remove his very frozen right side pedal.
    He neglected to grease or oil the threads before installing it a few years ago.
    I've only worked on it a little so far with WD40 and a long wrench and mallet, need to locate appropriate cheater bar.
    Any hints to ease the process? Heat?

    You can take the crank arm off, put it on a solid floor, concrete works best, rag underneath, put the pedal wrench on then apply your full weigh to the wrench in the correct direction. Jump on it if necessary :)

    If its the drive side you will need bricks etc to keep the spider off the floor.
