Pitman arm nut seized!

I’ve gotten mine off with my mid torque Milwaukee. Yes. A good quality tool, but by no means the most expensive. I do use a 12amp battery when messing with big stuff. It makes a difference.

Same here. No heat, no fuss, no muss.

Nut body side profile is not that big. A Dremel with a cutting wheel attachment should do it. Soon as you see threads showing on the cut, stop and whack the cut line with a cold chisel and a BFH and it should split

Dremel with a 1/8" burr bit. Burr about 180* apart. A small cutting wheel is too big.

Always said that "you're one broken bolt away from turning a 3 hr job into a 3 day shit show". In your case, it was a stuck nut.

That's when you take matters into your own hands.

That's one of the truest statements I've read on a forum. Damn does that resonate, lol.
