Try a puddy knife, just go slow and work them off.

Im assuming your talking about the bolts that hold the body to the frame? If they are that bad that you would use a torch, could try a air chisel, cut the head of the bolt off or a grinder, but both will be touble getting in the hard to get places.

Nothing beats the flaming speed wrench (torch) for this job.

Good Luck

If you can get a Drill to the head of the bolt,center punch it
and drill into the head with a titanium bit, go slow use cutting fluid
drill in about 1/4to3/8 depth .Then take air chisel and pop the head off
they come off easier this way.

or grinder as stated before, nothing beats the Hot Wrench Though.
