if I have problems with the brake calliper bolts then I use a left hand bolt remover on it and a 3 foot bar, that gets one moving then use a hammer to rotate the carrier and it should break the corrosion on the remaining bolt.

as for the strut bottom pinch bolts, if your scrapping the hub then grind off the female side of the bolt thread and release it that way.

I don't know why that link didn't work for you.

It seems to be OK now though.----------------
