If you heat the metal it should contract and allow the bolts to loosen...
Hate to nit pick, but your statement was in fact wrong. Metal most definately
expands as it is heated.
I hate to be rude but..... Read my first post!!!

it has to do with the metalurgical properties reacting to heat. When meatal is heated up and cooled it expands and contracts, If you heat the metal it should contract and allow the bolts to loosen, You have to be very careful when doing this because any plastic pieces that are attached to the chassis may melt if you apply heat for too long.
It also has to do with what metal your heating as every metal is different!
