- In situations like this, I pray to the lord. He then shines a bright light on my good 'ol pair of vice-grips. What have you got to lose - everything's already messed up and y'all will have to replace

- Got a welder? I use a cheapo or junk 1/2 inch drive socket and weld it right to the nut. The heat from the weld and the socket being attached right to the nut usually do the trick. Cut the weld with
