I knew that it would be hard to get the two exhaust bolts off but F#ck I only got one off and the other one wont come off. My father and I tried for three hours. Tommorrow my father is going to buy a impact drill to get it off. I am almost out of WD40 Too. Wish my luck!

breaker bar?

We looked for a metal pipe for leverage but could not find one. By this time it was to late to go to the store!

dunno if its too late or how the setup is on the exhaust bolts but maybe this it applicable. when i was installing my springs, some of the bolts were way too hard to get off so i used my floor jack to turn the ratchet. if it will work on the exhaust blots, just hold the ratchet in place where you are suppose to turn it upwards, and place the jack under the end of the ratchet and start jacking upwards, that might do it. good luck

Exhaust bolt on the head? or somewhere on the pipe?

If its on the head, I wouldn't use an Impact on it, if it snaps off, you'll have to have that bolt removed and heli-arched...Its a pain, an could damage the head.

If its just on the pipe, just cut it off with a saw and use new bolts...

WD40 is a lousy excuse for a penetrating oil. You will have much better results with Liquid Wrench or PB Blaster.

A breaker bar will just snap the heads off the bolts. Mine broke by just using a 1/2" drive ratchet without a breaker bar. Get some cobalt drill bits. You'll need them. Been there, broke that.
