How do you remove the front Radiator support bolts that bolt to the frame? I have the nuts off but the bolts will not come out.Need Help

put the nuts back on and tap the bolts loose.
They are probably rusted to the radiator support after all these years.

If they are rusted to the support what then.

If you have to hit them hard enough you ruin the bolts, you can get new aftermarket ones.

who sells aftermarket bolt kits with the rubber bushings,washers etc.for the support. I have seen cab mount and bed bushings but not radiator support bushings.
