The Bolts from Hell...

370Z Purist

Whoa!

Good to see all the response from the community. I was expecting a few posts, but not this many. Maybe I'll have enough rep...

Well, the PB Blaster and ATF/Acetone mixture has been soaking for over 20 hours now, so maybe I can get it to crack tonight. Otherwise, I will look up getting a torch. I've already tried everything besides an impact tool, which included impact with my arm using a socket driver, rubber mallet with a closed head wrench, an 18" breaker bar, an 18" breaker bar with another foot long cheater bar, small ball peen hammer to tap at the bolt, and steady torque.

I have been weary to try anything since I have almost stripped one bolt. It isn't too bad but it's starting to round a bit. I've since used only a six point socket.

It has been quite a while since the PB Blaster and ATF/Acetone was applied, so on the drive back, I guess I will attempt to heat the car as much as possible. I will get myself a torch just in case it comes to that.

I could try my butane cigar lighter torch... I've used it to spark bricks before (on top of actually lighting a cigar).
