That's what I ended up doing, using vice grips, lossened right up. I thought maybe a flare wrench would be needed, but couldn't believe how easy the edges of the nut seemed to round off despite using an open ended wrench. Tried W-40 and it didn't seem to help any, I don't think PB Blaster or Kroil would even do the trick. Trust me vice grips are an absolute last resort when it comes to nuts and bolts for me, first time I've had to use them on my car but it did the trick.
