Anybody have a good idea how to remove frozen bearing plate screws? I don't want to strip the heads. Anybody have experience with them?

Well...

Well, put the screw driver in the screw and give it a couple taps with a rubber malat, if that doesn't work give it a couple good pops with a regular hammer...that usually works for me. If the hammer doesn't pop it loose then I go to my dad's house and tell him "get this out for me" then I go in the other room, he cusses and says a few things, then brings it to me...works every time.

Try a little bit of break free fluid, comes in a spray can, let that sit on it for a few minutes then try. That usually works for me.
