Why are you taking the wings off ? If they have to come off, then you should expect a certain amount of trouble. It would not suprise me if the bolts shear off - that is the easiest way as new nuts and bolts can be used once the old captive nuts have been ground off. When replacing the bolts, use "penny" washers to re-inforce the wing area. On my RN, it was an easy decision as the inner wings had rotted away and the outer wings dropped off !! Oh, and you will probably need new wing piping.
