Hi,
Does anyone have any ideas on how to remove this plug from my rear end: 10 bolt 8.5 in? 1986 Chevy K10 4X4
I've sprayed on some penetrating oil, tapped it some with a 3/8 extension, tried to wrench it loose with the ratchet. I'm thinking of trying a small pipe wrench on it since it sticks out about 1/4 inch. i can always get a new plug to put in once its out.
also, is heat a bad idea here?
and FYI i don't have access to a welder, wish i did though
