This includes using a 2 foot breaker bar with a 3 foot pipe that had to put all my weight on and actually bounce to get it to break loose. When that let go it sounded like a gun went off, but the socket was fine.

@newman

Mapp torch is what’s up for sure.

And you’re probably using cheap sockets if they’re breaking.

This.
Another trick I’ve used to cooling as well for slider bolts. After using an impact gun to take the caliper bolts out and still having very frozen sliders a combination of the torch ( be careful you don’t melt the steel) then throw it in a deep freezer. Continue this for a bit along with PB blaster. It’'ll either eventually work or snap the slider bolt.
