Trying to take my end can off and 1 of the bolts holding it on just won't budge any ideas to free it up.The first two came off very easy but this last one won't. :smt010

soak in wd40 over night. also try doing it up just a little, this tends to break the rust bond, then undo it.
These things are sent to try us!!

Get it nice and hot use a hot air gun.....................then cool it with WD40.......................reheat it...................cool it repeat if neccessary
