    Smack it in the misfire with a rubber mallet. Also it might be pressed on, will need a puller. Those bolts in the picture you posted were not that bad. No reason you shouldn't be able to get them out. Heat the bolt head.

    Don't heat the balancer. It has rubber inside it. You heat the water pump bolts.

    Gonna spray wd 40 all over the damper. I bought a dead blow hammer today. Not much room to smack it lol.

    Rubber or hard plastic. You don't want to hit that damper with a steel hammer. Not sure why you insist on pulling it. The pictures you posted showed good looking books. They will come out. Just needs a bit of heat on the bolt head.

    I had a shop come out thats Mobile and he couldn't get that bolt either. Heated it up and the socket is just spinning on it. It needs a small socket tapped on but there no room for it.

    Well if you gotta take the damper of you probably need to pull the radiator to get enough room to get it out of the way. If that bolt is frozen in there that badly, chances are you are gonna have to drill that bolt or and retap the hole.

    That wouldn't solve anything. The guy at the ship would of rounded of that but just the same as pete did. Then pete would be paying them to pull the radiator, cac and evaporator to get the crank dampener off.
