Evidently you didn't read the op post, he tried that with socket and 4 foot extension. So your plan CAPUT

Plus if we worked togather who says you would be in charge.

The sudden jolt issued by your impact wrench,
seems to be quite effective indeed!
Matching the tool to the job at hand is golden.

Use your legs with the 4 foot extension.
That's what I call a NUT BUSTER.

Rent a Diamond Bit Concrete Saw a mask and ear protection and cut it out of the floor. One bag of redi mix. Paint. Done. Next problem. Playing with your nuts and getting the post off still leaves you with the studs, not good.

Try PB Blaster instead of Liquid Wrench. It is a better penetrating oil.

Just remember, always wear safety glasses when you are using any kind of power tools or are hammering . A small metal ,concrete or wood chip and you can lose an eye. Safety glasses in HD or Lowe's are less than 10 dollars. Keep them in your tool box so you won't have to look for them.
