You may have to up the anti a bit from the slide hammer.

The crankyest fasteners Ive ever had to deal with were the connected link bolts on the track of a tank. We would try with two guys bouncing on a six foot breaker bar on them with no success. Then put those same two guy putting full weight on the bar, and give the link a good whack with a sledge hammer and it would pop lose right away.
Add some heat and its hard to imagine it not breaking lose.

Good luck with it.
