[QUOTE="YUNG VEEZU, post: 1410068, member: 11262"] UPDATE: Today I tried to tackle the driveshaft again today with the torch. I accidentally sprayed too much PB blaster from last time and caused a huge flame, thankfully I had gloves, eye pro and wore layers. I tried to muscle with the 12mm wrench but again no luck. So today I just took off the AC compressor, and 3 out of the 4 bolts holding the power steering. The last one is in there pretty tight. I also moved most of the electrical harness towards the passenger side. Then took off the 2 heater core hoses. I'm pretty lazy today and in the middle of a transition to a new job, so I'm gonna wait until my full day off next week to tackle the stupid driveshaft again. I'm assuming the driveshaft is the original from 1997, so probably hasn't been touched since it was first installed. On a separate note, is this stud what I would use as an engine lift point? Also, do you guys have a picture of the point behind the drivers side cylinder head as well? I'm trying to get an idea of where to mount the chain when the time comes. In the following picture I'm talking about the stud right below were the fuel injector is.
