Default Wish I had an impact wrench

So I go to install my drop shackles and realize my hitch needs to come out. Ok so crank like a sumbitch on the hitch bolts. Nuthing but nearly crapping myself with the effort. I hit it with some PB Blaster and will try again, but damn these are on tight.


Just felt like venting a little.

try some stuff called sea foam Deep Creep... it breaks just about anything loose... there's also this stuff thats called Burlite. I havent seen ANY bolt yet that it will not free up with a little effort... I used it on some bolts on the bottom of a trailer that had been sitting in mud and leaves for about 5 yrs and they came loose after I soaked them in Burlite and let them sit for about 5 minutes.... I dont know whats in it but that **** works...
