Good Luck

Good luck man :tiphat:

FWIW, WD-40 is really more of a lubricant ... its does have some penetrating power due to its low surface tension. But the WD-40 Specialist penetrating product (or something like PB Blaster) is going to work much better :twocents:

can i find it at an autozone of some sort?

Absolutely. Any autoparts store should have some PB Blaster for sure. I'm not sure if they carry the WD-40 Specialist line of products.

I just went out to buy some penetrating oil yesterday - Walmart carries both the WD-40 "blue torch" oil as well as PB Blaster. (I bought PB since that is what I haved used forever)

Do you have experience with the WD-40 penetrating oil? Better than PB you think?

Not personally, no. My guess would be they aren't significantly different. PB Blaster has always worked fine for me, so I wouldn't think the WD-40 stuff is that much better.

just scooped some pb blaster up. imma spray the bolts down again every day until tuesday

If you want a truely kickass penetrating oil, use a 50/50 mix of ATF and acetone. Otherwise I suggest liquid wrench over both PB and WD-40

well, i just wanna say, F*** the demon bolts. they reall are a pain to get to. Especially the driver's side bolts. Passenger side was very simple and not hard at all to break loose. hopefully imma finish up tomorrow. anyone care to give me any advice on the driver's side?

i broke an extension trying to get the drivers out... impact extensions helped a ton

Did you remove the intakes so you could reach them without swivels? On the drivers side using a bolt extractor, long extension, and huge breaker bar I was able to get enough torque to snap the stud.

i couldnt get a snug fit on the top bolt because of the steering column.

Hmm...That wasn't a big issue for me. Here is a couple of pics I snapped of it after it deformed our impact socket when we failed to break it loose with the impact wrench. The pictures themselves show I had clear line of sight... I wonder what is different with yours.

You can see in the pics the nut is already starting to round off... The extractor made the difference for us, but you definitely need to get it on there square.

ill show you my predicament in the morning

You have to use a short socket on the end of 2 long extentions...I I was able to get to them, just not break them...the bottom one was my toughest...I broke a swivel on that one.
