I have an easyout, and got a new impact driver for Xmas that might be useful, but I'm worried that the damn thing is in so tight that even that won't do it. I'll apply a bit more of Rob E's approach, and then will try that- am just worried that if that doesn't work I won't have anything left to grab onto. At a certain point I'll just bag it and buy a new kickstand, as the hourly rate of frustration starts to exceed the cost of a new one. Thanks for the advice, and if I ever get it out, I'll make sure to use anti-seize on the threads instead of loctite.
