I can't think of the name of the one I used sucessfully many times already, but I'll try and get the name when I see it next.
By monkey wrench you mean like a pipe wrench right? I that would work better than Robogrips; I'll try it. For the penetrating oil, do you mean PB Blaster or Liquid Wrench? I've heard PB is good but have never tried it. I honestly don't know if there's a huge difference between LW, PB, and WD40.
