    I managed to get an aspire swap off in a winnipeg j/y. Cant get much more rusty than that LOL

    advise?... Um yea, WD-40.. and lots of it. And a big breaker bar and cheater pipe. Also a BIG hammer. And a punch helps too when a bolt wont come out even after the nut is off.

      Yes, way better stuff is PB Blaster, I'd say about 10x better!

            Rost-Off. It's both a penetrating lube, and it will flash freeze rusty stuff so quickly that often the rust bond will shatter. Don't spray it on your hands, or touch anything that's been sprayed immediately after application. It's cold. REAL cold.

                          Which bolts are giving you trouble? Do you have more than one car to choose from?

                            sometimes you gotta use the blue wrench. i use jb80. its real good. they make all sorts of sealants too. ive put this stuff on like every day up to a project and the bolts dont give me any problems.
