Rage doesn't begin to describe my feelings about the top diff mount bolts. I have one that has apparently bonded with the differential in some nuclear fashion and they are now one. Compounding this rage is the fact that having bought TWO bunk differentials, this will be my fourth swap since owning the car. I've learned my lesson about buying used diffs- the next one will be coming from diffs online.
Anyhow, I've exhausted all my normal tactics- blowtorch, pb blaster, swearing..., crying, and banging with a hammer while promising god I will live a more fruitful and productive life if he would just grant me this one bolt.
I even bought a set of tilting ratchet wrenches, and still nothing.
So would there be any harm in drilling out a hole big enough to get a socket through the trunk floor and onto that bolt, and then afterwards epoxying a rubber plug into the hole (after protecting the cut edge with some rustoleum)?
This is the only way I think I am gonna get this fucking bolt off. God, the feeling of satisfaction I would get putting an impact wrench on there....
HALP
