PB BLaster is JAWSOME!!

And yes... WD40 is a penetrating oil not a lubricant!!!

just a tip with PB Blaster... spray it... let it sit... try to loosen... if it doesn't work... spray some more... let it sit... try again... eventually it'll seep in... don't try to FORCE the issue too much...

I had a bolt that we put 150ftlbs of pressure on to loosen... no luck... after trying 3 or 4 times with no luck with the spray sit spray sit... it still wouldn't bust loose... I soaked the fucker over night... came out... and was able to crack the bolt with the 30ftlbs it was supposed to be holding with... and use my fingers to remove it the rest of the way.

just be patient PB Baster won't remove busted bolts

Nice tip ebbs. Got the stuff to work and got my frame sliders put on finally. Even got motivated and tied up some other loose ends with the tail light I put on a little while ago.

just be sure you've to a good fit on the socket, or you're gonna end up drilling it out.
