Hey everyone, I purchased a 2010 242b3. Does anyone know if the cab nuts on these are ever extremely rusted? I've tried snipes, impacts, and penetrating sprays, but they won't budge. I don't want to use heat because it's too close to the windshield washer tank and connectors. Makes me nervous. Anyone have any tricks or something I could be missing to get them opened?

I had the same problem on a 244B, I had to cut them off and replace with new. Huge pain.

I had a similar issue, tried everything you mentioned and ended up using a dremel tool to cut it. Tedious work but it did the trick.

Sometimes using a rust converter can help before trying to remove them. Apply it and let it sit for a day.
