PB Blaster over night then use a large pair of channel lock pliers to gently turn it back and forth. Make sure you have removed the bolt that is holding it in!!

Would have been easier to break that nut loos while it was still in the trans where it is held in place by the bolt. |

Might end up taking you up on that if i cannot get it unfrozen. I tried it in the tranny but because of a stupid mistake cracked a little bit of the case around the thread so cant do that because of risk /: |

Get a gallon of carb cleaner and dunk it for about ten minutes.
