get a wax candle and a map torch. heat that thing up real good and press the candle around the edges. it will suck the wax into the threads and you can remove it. I had to remove a stuck cv axle nut once and I tried everything, pb, ratchet/hammer, ratchet/sledge. 2ft breaker bar and literally jumping on a 6ft pole that I put over said breaker bar. heat+wax got it done easily. warning though, I had to get that fucker HOT. I'm not 100% sure how well the wax will get to the threads on a bolt as opposed to the nut I dealt with but I'd say it's worth trying. stuck bolts are such a bitch
