My son just gave me a little job... I've got six aluminum pickup topper
clamps that used steel bolts. They are all corroded together. if you just
twist hard, the bolt will take the AL thread with it.
Short of cutting the bolt off, milling and tapping to the next size; how
would you repair this?

After you remedy the corrosion problem, consider the use of some silicone
for preventing water or condensation from becoming the electrolyte
contributing to the mischief.

If you are not part of the solution, you are not dissolved in the solvent.
