Thanks for the tips guys! Torqued on that bolt like crazy until something gave. I heard something hit the ground and was like "crap". Look at the bolt and sure enough, I managed to break a flex joint and bend the stud about 15 degrees. Feeling dejected and out of options I went under there one more time to see if I could get some leverage. Apparently what I gave it was enough to set it wrench tight. Came off like nothing was wrong. As soon as the exhaust cools down, I'll tighten up the leaks and be extremely happy to say that I have DONE that haha.
