pb blaster and if the car is high enough use a breaker bar 1/2" preferably and the knuckle with a 15 mm deep well socket. you will need a few extensions also. i had to cut my 15 mm socket down to get it to work on that particular nut but i put 2 midpipes on and found that this was the only way i could get that nut loose

It's this kind of garbage that makes the tubular K member look pretty darn good to me...

Why are you removing manifold bolts to install an X-pipe anyway? Are you installing headers too? If so, just grind off the ones that are giving you problems and remove the studs...
