My solution was: a lot of heat Used my propane torch and to protect brake lines, I covered them with my welders gloves, because I couldn’t find any plumbers mats. Each bolt took around 5-10 minutes of constant heating and then serious impact gun action, but I got there :)
I didn’t see the first post but- Ayyy, let’s go!
I’m happy you got it! stuck fasteners are a bitch
You know, the “D” key on my keyboard has been sticking recently.
Just how much propane did you need?
I used this torch and because I was on low flame, I guess it didn’t need that much propane. Still on the same tank
Went it well without any damage to the rest of the car?
Yeah, constantly checked if nothing was overheating. And the impact did very well too. I am surprised how hot it can get. The impact bit sometimes got too hot to the touch, so I had to stop so it could cool down

I am currently dipping the rusty parts in acid, will post another update of the process later in the community
Been there, done that. Swapped my motor out on my Mazda6 and the A/C compressor was WELDED on to the old engine block from rust. Sucker added at least four hours to the swap. Getting it out was liberating
