Hey all,
So as many have known, I purchased my rust free rig in April and LOVE it. I especially love my rear bumper. My only issue is I need to change hitches and can’t get the drop hitch out of the receiver.
I know this is not a manufacturing defect, the only reason I stated that it was a 4x4Labs is so you know what I am dealing with.
First and foremost, yes I took out the pin behind the bumper
I have used 2 bottles of Penetrating oil on it, heated it, ran the electric hammer on it, and pounded it with a 10 lb sledge and it just wont budge. I’ve put a scope on it and it doesn’t seem to be any rust. Also, any oils that penetrate it drip the same color, seeming to look like there is no rust.
Does anyone have any other ideas I should I take it somewhere and let them cut it out?
TIA....
