I've sheared off a few 3/8 drive heads before lol. I bent the hell out of a 5/16 wrench at work one day putting in a right angle drive on a Bradley.......anyway PB Blaster, heat, and an impact will rip those bolts right out OP.

I broke a 3/4 adapter on a 1/2 wrench with a 1 11/16th socket changing a u-joint in the front wheel of my dodge the other day. Had a 5ft pipe on it. I done it putting it back on so I figured it was tight enough.

I agree, using heat will help break it loose. It's a proven fact jack! And never use a 6 point on 12 point bolts just in case you did'nt know. You need an impact.

yea i tried everything but the impact, the way i viewed with the amount of money a decent impact would have cost i could just buy a new driveshaft, which is what i ended up doing

That prolly was the best thing to do. I had a stock d/s I could have sent you for like 20 bux.

I know that this sounds stupid but last time I had to do take out them bolts I used a snap-on ratchet and a bottle jack under it and jacket it up pb blaster the crap out of the bolts try and heat up the yoke and one of three things will happen you brake the bolt, brake the ratchet, or it comes out. i got lucky and the came out. the last guy that had the car put lock tight everywhere on the bolts
