Default It does work

I've heard from numerous sources that this works, and very well. Give the time and materials required it would have to be worth a try.

The other old chestnut is when just one nut on a wheel absolutely refuses to move, in which case you fit all the other nuts loosely, fire up the vehicle, drive it forwards ( or back, depending on the hand of the thread ) and then just stamp on the brakes to force the wheel to rotate just a fraction, which often frees it enough to start moving. Used that a dozen times over the years.
