Default axle bolt....Help

Hey guys, I am trying to get the bolt from the knucle that holds the axle in place off. I tried heating it with Propane, a Johnson Bar, WD-40 and the fucken thing wont come off. Is there a better fuel that'll heat it up better or what should i do?

You want to make sure you have completely uncrimped the nut.
If it is still bent in it will be very difficult to remove.
Other than that, a big breaker bar and my body weight is how I got mine off.
