I was hoping to replace the front wheel bearing assemblies on my 2005 Ram 1500 4x4 this weekend. My back had different ideas, but it is getting better. I have the brakes off, the axle nut loosened, but the mounting nuts will not budge. I guess this shouldn't have surprised me since they are quite rusted, however, all I have succeeded in doing so far is breaking the extension I was using to reach the bolt heads. I have soaked them with PB Blaster. I have wire brushed the visible threads to get them as clean and rust free as I can, but now that I have broken the extension I am concerned that rather than moving they will just break off. Any suggestions that might get them free.
