Default Rear seat back bolt..

The bolt that is holding the rear seat back in place is what I'm inquiring on.. I cant seem to get it lose. Is there something I can do to make it come lose?

I used my 1/2" breaker bar with a cheater bar on the end and it popped loose pretty easily.

lol, I have literally tried every tool I can find that might work in my garage.. not knowing what a breaker bar or cheater bar is, I haven't tried that. Im hoping to figure that out, then see if those will work, then if nothing else down to menards for a impact driver.

A 1/2" breaker bar is is pretty much a metal BAR that holds any socket with a 1/2" back. it's got no ratchet or anything, and it's about a foot long, to give the user leverage to BREAK the grip of a stuck bolt or nut.
A cheater bar can be any old pipe that fits around the breaker bar's back end to give it a make-shift extension for even more leverage.

Yes, they are just in there really good. I had my seat out awhile ago and I tried to take it out last summer and I couldn't break it loose either. I didn't try a breaker bar because I don't have one, but if I really needed it out thats what I would try.
