I have had it for about 6 weeks now. The outriggers were (are) rusted into the body. The back two came out eventually. The front two are still stubbornly in place. I have resorted to a hacksaw blade on a saws-all. I have worn out several blades... Lots of penetrating fluid. I am using a...

Now you're talking! Hydraulic impact wrench... That would be the ticket. I can imagine that a hydraulic wrench might be a little heavy and awkward - but there shouldn't be any shortage of power that way. The "squad" and the "rescue" fire trucks trucks in town have a hose reel of siamesed...
