    Frozen Axle Nut

    I'm replacing the axles on a '93 Camry V6. I didn't have any trouble with the driver's side (after a steep learning curve), but the passenger side axle nut is frozen. I have it soaking with Liquid Wrench, and have put enough torque on the nut that I've slightly bent my new Sears flex bar. Any ideas for getting it off before I take the torch to it? Thanks in advance!

    A better penetrating oil is PB Blaster, works a lot better than any other
    I've tried. Should be available almost anywhere and reasonable in price.

    After waiting 5 days for the Liquid Wrench to work, I ground the nut off with a Dremel and tungsten carbide grinding bit. Next time I'll try the PB Blaster!

    Thanks!
