axle vent removal

[maxwedge5281]

in the process of replacing brake lines on my 69 bronco. i want to remove the front and rear axle vents. but, they seem to be firmly in place. i do not wish to break the vent bolt by applying too much torque. are they very strong bolts and do the thread rust into place. will a good soaking of pb blaster help or is there a better way? thanks for any help or suggestions.

If you do break them, we have stainless steel ones...

1/8 pipe thread, you can use a push-to-connect, or a hose-barb fitting.

$15 including 1 fitting of your choice (push-to-connect or hose-barb)

i soaked them good with pbb and with some persuasion they both freed up. both were plugged shut!
