suggestions!!<><><><><><><> <><><><><><><> Stuart, Is it so deep you can't weld a nut to the top of the bolt and then back it out? Sometimes the heat from welding will also help loosen a stuck bolt. You get expansion with the heat and contraction with the cooling and if you have a bit of penetrating oil it can sometimes get sucked into the frozen area. If you give some more details maybe you can get some better ideas.

I would add, just get a AGM type battery, once you fill it, you seal it and it will not pee. Many avail in stock size, FAQ has some listed also.
