    I would have used a little heat on it. Just an old farmers trick. Seems to work everytime. 🆒

      Doesn't that bolt have a torx head on it??? I believe most of them do, and by looking at the picture it seems that way also.

        Hahahah, that is funny stuff. I am assuming that whoever it was that posted the original question thought it was supposed to be a hex head bolt?

          what are you talking about? heat makes things expand.

            Obviously you don't know what you are talking about. You heat the nut, or area around the bolt, which makes that expand, and waalllaaa your have a freed up bolt(hopefully).

              Lol

              Yeah, the picture is blurry, but it does look like a Torx bolt. I've got a set of Torx sockets if you need me to help out.

                we got it out no need for help now....it didnt matter what the original bit was thats what i meant though. It was a literal circle on the outside and circle on the inside from all the rust/wear on it. Id assume it was the people/mechanics who worked on it before we bought it because it was a salvage titled car so they probably took lots of it apart and back together, who knows. Its off and replaced now though.

                  how does one prevent the heat from transferring to all of the parts?

                    oxyacetalean torch(sp?) it heats the part so fast it doesnt have the chance to spread so its concetrated...

                    At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!

                        experience helps a lot, listen to others who are wise, and dont be afraid to ask questions, just dont act like you know what you are doing when you dont know jack shit.
