I aborting taking off the 3rd crossmember when I was servicing my transmission because after loosening 7 of the 8 bolts, the 8th one broke off! I had hit them all with penatrating oil for a day before I tried to crack any of them loose, the other loosed slightly, the 8th broke off! I found another way to get to rear of pan but does this make the vehicle unsafe? When I retorked the ones I had loosed, a 2nd one snapped off on the same side! Why!!!!!
