    No should tap right out. If does not want to budge drill a hole in that big aluminum spacer in between the case/swingarm mount and fill it with PB Blaster or something and let sit. To can tap the swing arm bolt on either side to kinda rock it back and forth. Mine, I had to cut the spacer/swingarm bolt with air grinder with cut off disk. What happens is guys never pack that spacer full of grease then swingarm bolt gets rusted inside then won’t come out.
