I'm sure this has been posted before. I was given a fixer upper trx 300 and I have no idea how to get the pivot bolts out of this thing. I could use some help from you on an easy way to get them out.

Remove the nut on the left side and the bolt on the left and it should slide out. PB Blaster/WD-40 is your friend.

I got a fixer 250x recently and mine was hopelessly stuck and I ended up cutting it out with a sawzall. That was a huge pain, so good luck.

I have a trx 300 that has a bolt on each side which looks like they take a very large alle wrench.

My bad... I read that as 300ex. Not 100% sure about the TRX300, but it's a pretty safe bet that it's just a matter of removing the bolts and applying lots of penetrating oil and some brute force (being careful not to bugger the ends so badly that you can't replace the bolts)
