 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.

drain the nut in WD-40 for a good 20 minutes.. then with an impact gun the well should not move.... if you have an auto put the car in park if now put it in 3rd gear... if that doesn't work.. get a blow torch and heat up the nut till its tuning read.. and that sould get it off if not.. then don't know what to tell you ..
