[QUOTE="kenojoe, post: 630910, member: 865"] I dismantled my haywagon Saturday and found the tie rod nuts had loosened up years ago. I need to turn these 3/4" fine thread nuts about a full turn. I have tried soaking them with Blaster, Kroil you name it. I soaked the whole tie rod end for a day in a can full but no good. I had the big pipe on the wrench going back and forth, tapped the nut with a hammer and nothing. I have not yet tried heating the nut with a torch. I have never used a torch to loosen a rusted nut before, any advice on how this is done? I am looking for any tips on breaking these nuts loose. Thanks for any help. Joe [/QUOTE]
