truck has never seen off road. i got a good price so i sold the axles. other then hitting it with a 10 pound sledge hammer. i have done everything i could think of. didnt move at all!

so what do i do? thanks
 
first off why take off the arm if you sold them?

and second i always have problem getting solid rusted up bad nuts off. then arm pops up by its self . go figure.
 
I had to beat on mine for about 30 minutes before it became loose enough that I could work the cone washers free.
I had the axle out of the truck, if you don't already, to give me more room for a good swing. Hitting it where there are numbers cast into the metal helped alot.
A lot of cussing, sweating, and swinging a BFH. :D
 
Soak it in kroil,wd 40,etc. Then heat the hell out of it from the side,just the arm not the studs. Then smack it from the side with a bfh.
