Autozone has "Rust Eater" which probably isn't as good as Mopar
but it does dissolve rust. Used it and a half dozen other products
on a tapered part that was stuck tight. None unstuck it by normal
means but a 20 lb sledge finally did.

from your friendly local Dogde stealership parts counter. Ask for Mopar
P/N 04318039AB, That is the old number, but they should be able to look
up the new one. There is a photo of it here:

There is also a picture of the old can on page 24 here:

Tell me more about this stuff. Where do you get it?

I just did the struts on a 12 yr old dodge and the bolts were rusted
tight, with way more thread through the nut than necessary. The rust
eater ate the rust and I was able to get everything apart. going back
together, most of the fits were like original so I could run the nuts on
by hand.
It was reformulated, but seems to still work well.
Sure does. My 83 has yet to see an Upstate winter. I really hate to even
drive it this winter but I currently have no choice. The brine they are
putting on the roads around here is terrible. I live right by Watkins
Glen, NY, home to Cargill, makers of the brine, so they test formulas on
local roads. I have noticed a serious uprise in the amount of rust on
cars
since they started with the stuff a few years ago. Newer cars, with cheap
recycled parts are terrible to work on after just a couple of winters.
The
bodies don't rot so bad thanks to modern corrosion inhibitors but the
fasteners are frozen to the point of breaking or stripping the heads.
