Downpipe Bolts

[jdanda at sunflower.com (James S. Danda)]

Good news. I was able to break free 5 out of 6 downpipe/manifold bolts.
The last one is stripped. Fortn, it is the right rear one, so worst case I
can take a drill to the stud bolt. But before doing that I thought I'd try
those craftsman sockets with edges cut into them that grab stripped nuts.

Has anyone used those before?

For those interested, I used penetrant and a 3/8 socket drive with a wobble 
and an 8" extenstion. I also used a 5' pipe as a breaker bar. I love breaker
bars! ( I don't have an air wrench )

I also learned I need a good set of gogles. The falling rust stings a little in
my eye :(
