problems removing crank bolt from hub

I've used a propane torch to heat the BOLT before....sometimes you've just gotta put some English on it. LOL

There's red stuff on the underside shoulder of the bolt head too, that's the problem most of the time. Better eat your Wheaties now!
 


Only reason I used heat is cause my impact wouldn't even budge it and its rated at 650 ft/lbs. I guess if you don't heat the hell out of it you should be fine. And eat your Wheaties lol.
 
36 or 48" 1/2 drive breaker bar + 15/16ths socket and a REAL vice grip and its done.

Just use the car for leverage and its problem solved.

I dont know about you guys but it takes more effort to torque it to spec than to get it off.
