Default warrior rear brake

the bolt with the allen head that the caliper slides on is seized up...tried everything to get it loose.

any suggestions past PB blaster and lots of force?

it does have to be loose so that the brake can line up right?

I don't really have any ideas for you, other than maybe try using sharp quick blows to it instead of excessive force, sort of like how an impact wrench works to break things loose. Maybe try tapping it with a hammer or something. Or just let the penetrating lube soak in for a few days, and try it again.

yeah i would try quick sharp blows on it, if you know someone with access to air tools that has an impact wrench i would use it, but be carefull with how much force you put on that bolt the stock bolts on my warrior are really soft, i have broken several.
good luck
