Pics attached, it's a dang mess. I'm going to go at it for a while longer but not sure. Even the ones I've drilled and succesfully chased with a tap don't give me confidence they'll allow me to get the connecting bars to budge. I suppose the last ditch effort is to cut the connecting bar, soak in oil, and ram it 6 inches deep into the frame...which will probably not end well.
