My trailer hitch has rusted into the receiver. I squirted blasted front,
back and inside the hitch pin homes. Then attached a 3/4" 3-strand nylon
line off my boat to the ball to a tree. Straight pulling failed. I tried
backing up to get some slack and then jerking forward. Line snapped.
I don't think a propane torch would heat the receiver enough to get it
loose. Anbody solved this problem?
