I'm trying to reseal my steering boxes using both the FSM and Army's wonderful guide.(first post here)

But for the life of me I can't get the Pitman arm off. I've already broken a Pitman arm remover I had (thankfully the store replaced it under warranty). I've let it sit in PB Blaster over three days now dousing it every once in a while. I've used a gear puller on it until I couldn't wrench it anymore and the same with the pitman arm puller. The thing just won't budge.

I'm thinking heat, but trying to figure it out since I've covered the thing in flammable penetrating liquid.



Anyone had any luck with removing these? I've still got one box to go and I'm getting a little discouraged.
