Use the WD and make shure you're turning the right way.

Other than that there is nothing you can do exept increase force untill it breaks loose.

Good luck.

Take the WD, put it........................away.................... .......lol, and go buy a can of P B Blaster.

Yeah pb blaster and a lot of anger.

Lots of penetrating lube, it might be a slim chance but snapping those studs would NOT be fun. Breaker bar or cheater bar, then give 'er ****.

i have broke a stud before actually, thank God for the parts car. Might help to pull up from within the engine bay than tryin to pull from under the car, not sure which way you're going.

I've found that on frozen bolts/nuts, applying constant pressure can snap a stud, where apply tension to the bolt/nut, and a sharp rap with a hammer will often break the rust bond, instead of twisting the threaded part in half.

ASBOLUTELY true!

P B Blast. Soak over night. And/Or get a small propane torch, apply heat, cool, crack.
