That's funny, but I can't blame you for asking, considering it all. I'm so careful about that sort of thing, I mean.....I have a permanent peanut butter jar in my head.Are you absolutely sure you're turning it in the right (lefty-loosey) direction?
I got the MFFFFFFr loose. It never popped or gave loose, it just eventually untightened. I did switch to my ratchet gear-head...thinking it would be easier than the distance needed to change the position of the 12-point. It wasn't, even with changing the blocks, I was mostly getting only one to two clicks at at time, due to the slop in the ratchet. Must've raised and lowered the jack 40 times.
If the driver's side top bolt is like that, I don't know what I'm going to do. It's not like I can mount a 2x4 hanging from the rafters.
This one is finger loose.
