Rear brake bleeders - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

My truck is a 1971 GMC C3500. One of my rear hard brake lines ruptured. Ordered a set of hard brake lines for heavy duty truck axle. Parts came and match what I have. Crawled under truck and started getting busy. Then I found the real bummer here. One bleeder will not break free, the other is broke off. I have soaked them with WD40 for 24 hrs and bought a screw extractor set. But this thing is seized bad. Any tips or hints for getting these out and replacing them?
