car's up on jacks need some help... **PICS**

so i'm in the middle of swaping in a SE-R rear sway bar and these two mother %*@#$^s will not come off.


as you can see (if you look hard) both are already starting to strip. here is a wide angle shot for better look at the location of the bolts.


i have tried plenty of WD40, no help. should i cut 'em? what would i cut 'em with? any suggestions?

Use some better stuff than WD-40 for starters. Then get an impact wrench!

Get rid of the WD-40 and buy multiple cans of PB Blaster. Works 9 times out of 10, especially on easy access bolts like those. Soak it a couple of times with the PB Blaster.

I know its a little late, but try and get your hands on a set of multi headed sockets, Metrinch make some pretty mad sockets utilising the Multi head socket, check em out http://www.mitools.com/
They take a bit to get used to but the socket grabs the side of the nut instead of the corners, very much reduces the chance of burring the nut. Also champion for getting burred nuts off.......
