So i started working on my spare rear axle tonight. Its a 8.8 with 3.55 posi. But I got it a carsile like almost four years ago... two years it sat indoors (last) two out side kinda covered but both lower and upper control arms were just torched off and I am having a hell of a time trying to get the bolts off the axle so i can paint it and put into the vic. Anyone got any suggestions on how to get these off without breaking my back or having to use a torch.

For several nights in a row. You can also try applying step #2 every night before you spray the new penetrating oil.Originally posted by 91waggin View PostComment

REALLY POWERFUL impact gun (no Campbell Hasselhoff crap, your breaker bar makes more torque than one of those)
