Bits should be here today per UPS.
Seriously doubt they will work. Soak the crap out of it from both sides?

There’s an excellent series of repair tutorials called ‘The Red Green Show’ on this stuff.
Morning fellers! 6:30 and the street construction crews are dropping off equipment already. That'll wake up the neighborhood!

Well I think I can say I successfully created a car loving monster. My 5 yr old who never wakes up on her own before 10, just came running in here, screaming excitedly, fully dressed and out of her PJs Asking if it was time to go see the “race cars”(she calls muscle cars race cars)

Air impact gun or manual type you hit with a hammer?
Put the but in the impact driver a few good hits with a 5 lb hammer should free it. Just don't go ape crap on it since it is in aluminum.
And don't use a chrome type socket to hold the bit. Learned my lesson on them.

Need pic of the problem. ( no I don’t mean Chris should take a selfie. Lol)
He did, steel bolt in a aluminum case was bending torx bits. Prob galled/corroded in there.
Dropped in to say hello, hope you all have a gem of a day today.
He did the selfie a while ago.
