Hey guys, I'm having trouble replacing the assembly on my KJ. It just doesn't want to break loose for some reason and the 13mm socket just seems to want to round it. Any suggestions?

Let engine reach operating temps,shut off engine(duh) and use a brand new,high quality 13mm 6 point socket and breaker bar(1/2" dr).After getting the bolt out replace it with a new one and use a little antiseize on the threads.

Thanks for tips.

I tried it with the engine warmed up and a new 6 point socket, but it still wouldn't budge. It just wanted to push the socket out or was rounding the bolt. I'm at a loss. I asked going my brother to talk to one of the mechanics at his work to see if he wants to tackle it.
