i have stripped my damn axle nut and can't get it off...tried pb, wd40, breaker bar and now even an impact wrench at 345ft-lb and it still won't turn....it is on the passenger side and now with all those method, the nut is completely destroyed. im so at a lost right now...any ideas i can get this piece of crap off without having to cut the axle or mess up the threads on the axle spindle?

if you have access to a welder, weld on the socket, itll allow you to really torque on that thing with a long breaker bar and/or a VERY long pipe.
NO JOKE i used a 20ft piece of pipe to break one... and it still took a lot of effort -------------------- QUOTE "And, as always, your friendship, help, and dedication to the advancement of Texas Celica dominance is GREATLY appreciated.
