...if you can get out the fixed cup and spindle on the other side, buy all means do so. It's got flats, and you can hold a fixed cup wrench on with a bolt the same threading as a crank bolt, and some fender washers. I've never had the same kind of results from anything like Kroil or PB Blater that I get with 50-50 ATF/acetone as a penetrating oil.

When you heat it, focus your torch heat on the cup itself.
