Beasley Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Ok, Can't believe that I couldn't get the filler bolt or the drain bolt out of my 1990 1 Ton Axle. (24mm socket) I have been spraying with PB Penetrating Spray all day, hit bolt heads with a hammer, and tried cheater bars with no success. Here is a cheap electric impact gun that I got from Autozone that worked like a charm. 3 seconds on each bolt , done deal. I'm planning to flush and fill with Red Line 75W90 High Performance Synthetic two thumbs up on impact tool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob C Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 I have used a combination of PB Blaster for a couple of days followed by heat from a torch or heat gun and then I spray with a product that super cools the bolt. The combination of hot and cold seems to make removal easier. If you use a torch, don't over-heat the bolt to the point of burning things up. The product that cools the bolt is called CRC Freeze-Off.
