Can you put a pipe on the end of that wrench? Have some one tap (or bash) it with a hammer and someone else pry on the wrench. Yelling at it always helps me...

What I did is leave the wheels on the ground and use the breaker bar to turn the nut. My breaker bar is about 3-foot long.

I've tried everything and still the nut will not move, i went out and bought a huge aircompressor and air tools still nothing, i tried a huge 3/4 inch drive breaker bar and still the nut refuses to move. Next i'm thinking of heating it up and trying to expand it, cuz i really don't care about the nut on there cuz i got a new one.

Heating will definitely hlp. Also narrow belt grinder, drilling may cut it in half.
