Joy of lifting my truck

I am in the process of putting on a lift on my xj , every bolt has broken so far in the frame, i even put some anti seize on last week and let them soak.

Anti-seize only works on the thread mating surfaces. Try some PB Blaster and let that soak a few days with applications every 8 hours or so.
Use the anti-seize when putting it back together if you like.

That's a must if they break taking them off. Would prevent this headache in the future.

Do you have an impact gun? they work wonders in getting stubborn fragile bolts out.
