basically the bolt you twist to bring the cage up seems to be seized so i can not raise the cage up with the spare wheel, is there any way of releasing this seized up bolt? or do i have to grind the f****r off and replace it? and where can i buy a replacement bolt for it?.

i have heard that they can refuse to tow you if they discovered you remove the spare tyre.
not sure if that is true or not.
any light?

Besides its the same guy thats came out to me 2 or 3 times now so he kinda knows me if it really came down to it i could just call a family member to bring me the wheel, on long trips id stick it in the boot
