I broke my 1/2" breaker bar on this job so I bought a 3/4" bar and 1 3/16" socket. With a piece of roll cage tubing over the breaker bar I stood on it at least 2 feet from the nut.

Well,
Try penetrating oil. Squirt. Tap it with a hammer to help the oil work in. Go have lunch. Squirt in more oil. Tap with a hammer. Try with the wrench. If no budge, squirt, tap, come back the next day and it will come off. The other way would be to use a torch to heat the metal around it, but I don't know if there is anyhting fragile in there that you don't want to be heating. Zach |
