Sheared bolts on pedestal

I'm replacing the NF on my WD with a Wide front and in the process of removing the 4 bolts on each side of the pedestal I snapped off 2 of them, one on each side. They are flush with the outside of the rail, no way to get a vice grip on. What is the best way to get these out. I don't have a welder or a torch. I'm really up in the air on this and need all the help I can get, being severly mechanicaly challenged.

It they are just sheared off and not rusted or had bad threads when put in you should have good luck in using a center punch and hammer. Tap lightly toward the out side of the bolt in a counterclock ways direction, being careful not to damage the threads.

After you get the pedestal out by doing what the others said, you can weld a large nut on the stubs, also put some candle wax on the bolt, wait a while, and the heat of welding may loosen them enough to get them out.

you might as well take one of the frame rails loose because the front end fits REALLY tight between the rails, it won't just slide out, like it looks like it will.

How much clearance can you get by loosening one rail? Also what do you have to do to loosen a rail?

Take off the left frame rail, there is less involved in removing it. Just support the tractor under the other frame rail and maybe under the PTO housing or torque tube infront of the PTO. The right rail has the belt pully or plug for belt pully and it's oil seal, and the bearing for the steering shaft, and other stuff attached to it that the left one doesn't have.
