If you can get a vice grip on the bleed screw that will usually break it loose.
Yeah I tried the various vice grips and everything I could. No dice. At this point it's a mangled rusty stub .. that I probably should have heated up first

Brakes are good finally. A whole bunch of air just came out of the rear lines.

The front diff isn't leaking either anymore which was the whole point of all this. It was really those two little o-rings on both sides. I don't expect them to last long either they're so small and dirt gets up in there. The o-rings look really undersized.
