O-Ring

I've been trying to remove the bolt to change out my power steering o-ring but it's been a hell of a task to remove. Any suggestions on trying to get this bolt out?????

Breaker bar will crack it loose. tip: applies to any bolt that feels difficult to remove.

Hit the gym more, use a cheater bar to increase leverage, or get a higher torque impact tool.

Are you referring to the bolt that's part of the DIY A-105, part number 91345-RDA-01?

If that's the case, I had to use the 16(?) pointed side of the 10mm wrench that's round. It bends away a little bit, giving leverage to get it in there. Trying to use the other side with the opening didn't give me the leverage or angle I needed.

You need an angled wrench.
