been there, done that. He needs to spray pb blaster, white lithium, brake cleaner etc etc on it and beat it with a rubber mallet. Without some kind of solvent and vibration it won't come out. If that doesn't work heat it CAREFULLY with a torch.

This ^^^
Also when heating with the torch heat around the bolt not on it. Also try a big *** pipe on the wrench.
Good luck

Ok got it off, but didn't solve my problem.
Symptoms are wobble at 45-50 mph and slight pull to left.
What we have done
Just replaced caliper bracket it had a stuck glide,
Had alignment and balance,
Did brake job,
Replace tire rod end.
Any ideas it is driving me crazy !!!!

You might have a seperated tire. Swap the front tires from side to side and see if the pull changes sides.
