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.

a freind of my son has a beetle.
We broke a 1/2 inch one (never did that before) We bent a 3/4 inch one....unbelievable We took it to a truck shop (big diesel trucks) He pulled out a huge airgun...no problemo for him The 1/2 was understandable. The 3/4 breaker should not have bent...it must have been faulty..we returned it and did not get another one..the sales guy agreed..something was up if we bent it... it bent , or twisted the end that goes into the socket...not the bar... And yes, we had a really long cheater bar, car on the ground and all... Rich |
