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.

i've wondered if Kymco's Torque Meister ( flywheel gland/vw axle nut removal tool) would work on our cars. the claim is you can remove a vw fw gland nut with a 3/8" ratchet. i've seen write ups using the kymco tool to remove axle nuts in HotVWs. not cheap by any means, but if it works you should be able to remove a stub axle nut with the control arm off the car.
