Doug, any suggestions on how to unscrew stubborn rods? Need to swap out 
the ones at my Mom's and my own. 1 1/16" socket seems pretty standard 
for them. Mom's won't budge with an 18" breaker bar on it. No compressed 
air; I filled my little portable tank and tried the 1/2" impact on it, 
but couldn't get enough run time to do any good.
