What is the best way of removing a stuck break drum? I tried to use a hammer, and even a 10lb sledge hammer, and still nothing. Will applying heat work?

Where can I buy new cab bolts? I had to cut one when I removed the cab, and now I need a new one, but I would like to be able to replace all of the bolts (Core support, Cab, and bed) Does anyone know where to get new ones?


Thanks, Matt

GM sells cab bolts but they are slightly different from originals, The core support bolts which are longer I got grade 8 bolts at Home Depot to match.
