Since your bolt is stripped my suggestion might not work as I was speaking to those having stuck bolts that haven't been stripped out.
However a suggestion for stripped bolts...I have at times used a punch and hand-sledge and tapped the stripped bolt inward a bit. Then I tighten up the bolt a bit. This can cause the stripped threads to recut. Then I would perform the "torch and Liquid Wrench" action. Then after the 1/2 hour I could then back out the bolt. This "hammering" trick doesn't always work however. I would say for me the "hammering" trick only worked 50% of the time.
