    So it is ok to be two inches from the bolt? A torch has been on the list which is getting done on an as needed basis.

    Yea that's fine.

    I used to be all about PB blaster until I rebuilt some old land cruiser axles and had to use the heat/torch method to free up bolts, works great!!

    Thank you for reminding me of this. It did the trick with one of the bolts. :thumbsup:

    Got my first torch yesterday. Never used one before & now I am not sure how I have survived without it.

    Adding these to the list. I went the low torch route, but can see how these would come in handy where one could not use a torch....
