Default Half shaft Crown nuts

I cannot get these things to budge one mm with everything I've got! I've let them soak in PB and I've broken my homemade breaker bar I've tried bouncing on the thing with all my weight (not much my heavier friends are on their way no joke) and I ran a hammer into my leg.

Any suggestions? I'm stumped?

Btw I'm replacing the half shafts since my stock ones are shot to hell (click click click every single turn embarrassing)

Thanks in advance,
Bart

Impact wrench. It's not the prefered way to do it but the sudden jolts plus the PB already applied should break it free. Good luck to ya.

I use 3/4 inch drive tools, so for me there is no problem. You need to get someone to stand on the brakes while useing an impact or big braker bar. But you must use a torque wrench when reinstalling the nuts, you can over tighten them.

Cheater pipe.

Also you get more power pulling up than pushing down. Use leg muscles.
