Hopefully its a brass nut....however, even at that the steel threads on the stud may well be gone.
If mild heat from a propane torch followed by an ice cube quench or a pb blaster quence don't free it up....go with a nut splitter. |

Re: 1966 Chevy C10
Thank you, yes its the brass nut. Was able to remove 4 of the 6 no well some problem breaking free, 1 stud did end up breaking and I am still stuck with one on passenger's side. Will try the nut splitter thank you for the advice.

Re: 1966 Chevy C10
may end up breaking, I would soak it with penatrating oil first.
