The aircraft is a vans RV9, so no complicated oleos etc.
The nut is off the bolt, but the bolt is still wedged in. The head is in good condition.
We have taken the weight of the noseleg but that does not help.
From a common sence point of view, either the tie rod end splitter method to lift it out or a c clamp to push it out have to be the best options at this point.
