tips for busting extremely tight frame bolts?
#9
I used a 2 ft. breaker bar. Leverage is your friend. Big Grin

I usually don't like to spend a lot on tools that I won't use very often, but a breaker bar is relatively inexpensive and is very useful on stubborn bolts. I also use mine for loosening/tightening the rear axle, since it tends to spin if you only turn the nut side.
