replacing brake hose problems
I've got a 78 f150 custom I6 4 speed and the rear brake hose blew out when bringing it home. It is the hose that goes from the frame rail to the axle.
Now the problem, I can't get the bolt even loose on the axle right where the block is! One day I tried heating it and that didn't even seem to help.
Anyway I can get this loose without breaking the bolt?

Spray with PB Blaster, cut the hose, put an impact socket on it and try a bit forward and backwards with a rocking motion, hold the block with a cresent wrench so you do not twist the block and attached lines.
