 Im trying to break the axel nuts loose on my 94st (7a) and they just wont budge. Ive tried electric impact gun, air gun, putting a crowbar between the studs to keep wheel from spinning (bent a stud), tried using my 1/2in. craftsman ratchet with a breaker bar and broke the ratchet. I dont know what else to do. Please help me with any suggestions, thanks.

if i remembered correctly.. resinstall the rim/tire of the car.
Put the car back on the floor. The tire grip on the ground should be great enough for you to break that nut loose. |
