At best a mediocre lubricant. After reading about PB Blaster here on the forum, it is my newest best friend. I use it on everything that is stuck. [Reply]  [No Email]

Use ATF or PB blaster to do that and your stand a little better chance. But even then those are torqued down to 450 FT/LBS so it takes a lot of heavy pulling/pushing to free them up.
