We use In-force at the shop as well, Spray it let it soak and Heat it up as hot as you can get it, Douse some gear oil on it, Let it absorb, Heat it up again and take em out!

2 other poorman's ideas- brake fluid works sometimes, and start it, let it get warm but not hot enough to start a fire, and hold a candle against it, let it melt and run down the threads, then tap lightly with a small hammer

This stuff is also good:

NUTS-OFF PENETRATING OIL :: Del Vel Chem Company


WD-40 is useless.


What he said,

or ATF/Acetone mix 50/50

and take it apart hot, soak it, run the hell out of the truck break all bolts then soak again, wait till it cools and take everything out.
