Re: axle hub nut question

I know a mechanic who gets them off by jacking the car up, putting the power bar against the ground, and slowely lowering the car down.
There is usually enough weight in the car to put enough torque on the bar to loosen the nut.

It's also a good way to bend bars and break cheap sockets
