Taking the front seats outta my 1990 Eagle Talon tsi awd... there is four nuts/bolts holding the seats to the floor. Got three of them on the drivers side... the back right nut is stuck, soaked it in pb blaster for awhile still no good.. hard to get the wrench on there with the seat the way it is... tried a breaker bar on i tbut the bar doesnt fit in there well with the back seat there.... tried hitting the wrnehc with a hammer to break it free... still no good... any suggestions?

on the passenger seat i got the front two but not the back two nuts off the bolts.. so same deal with those... what is a way to prevent this from happeneing in the future.. or will it be fixed now they are loose, cuz my friend said they come from the factory loctite'd... so it might be better now... suggestions please!

thanks

When I took my passenger one out for the dragstrip I didnt have any problems. I guess you could try using anti-seize on them when you get the off. In order to get them off you could try using an impact gun if you have one. good luck other wise man.
 
it was cold that first time i tried anyways... about -10... but thats warm to hwo it has been here... down to like -28 during the night... but today is like already 10 above so i'll try again today and see if i can get that breaker bar onto my wrench again, and lets not hope i brake the rachet feature on it again....
