I've just broken my very expensive breaker bar ( doing all of the things that Mr Bundy did) trying to get the nuts off my Honda CRV 2005 so what I intend to do is drill a hole parallel to the threads-but not touching them-and split the nut, I can't afford another £90 for a new breaker bar and I don't have compressed air tools. Two new nuts will cost £14.

I'm not a big HF fan, but in their defense, any time you have to put a cheater on a 40 inch breaker bar, you cant expect a 1/2" drive to hold up. I've broken many a Craftsman breaker bars the same way...and these were the decades old American made tools...

Yes! Most accurate video on this. Thanks for the laugh and commiseration. These suckers are stuck tight. Biggest, torquiest nut on the whole car, hands down. Don't blame Harbor Freight, my 36" Craftsman 1/2" breaker bar twisted the driver right out of the fork. Husky? Sheared the 1/2" square-drive off in the socket. Reassembled the intact parts of the Husky & Craftsman breakers into a Franken-breaker? Cheater bar broke them both together. No joy. Torch? Nuthin'. PB Blaster? Nuthin'. Cheater pipe? Nuthin (except broken tools). Stomp on it, jump on it, rock it, jack it... nothing. Manual impact? Nope. Electric impact? No luck.

Had to remove these on my 03 Chevy S10. Used plenty of PB blaster, snapped a breaker bar, used an impact driver and a torch and still couldn't get it off. Finally cutting it with an angle grinder got it. Just be careful not to go as deep as the threads of your axle. This weakens the nut enough for it to fail.

Thanks for sharing your video. I had to remove an axle nut recently from one of my vehicles, and what I learned (The hard way) was that using a breaker bar is a very hard way to remove axle nuts, I couldn't get my off. Lucky for me, I was able to borrow an 1/2" Wireless Impact Wrench from my job and impacted it off. Impact wrenches are the way to go! & for those that don't know any better, I'm referring to Impact Wrenches, not Impact Drills, which are different things. Save yourself some trouble and money by not breaking multiple breaker bars and adapters and just get an just borrow an Impact Wrench for Axle Nuts. 💪

You weight about 180 ft.lb sitting on a 3 ft bar - that's over 500 ft.lbs torque on a little 1/2" drive. See tests on KZfaq with 1/2" drive snap-on ratchets breaking at only 300 ft.lbs - a cheater bar is going to be tougher metal, but 1/2" drive is still a 1/2" drive. You definitely need a quality 3/4" drive breaker bar with 3/4" socket for such job. Or, the much faster way - stop to a garage to have them break loose the nut with the impact, tighten back a little, drive home and finish the job.

well i was about to get a cheater pipe and give it to it with my HF breaker but you just saved me from snapping mine. i think ill wait till the sun comes up before i torch mine and give it the beans with my impact. im pretty sure that because the axel nut is a brass/bronze type copper alloy it is subjected to accelerated corrosion via galvanic corrosion. the aluminum head in these cars doesnt help. i believe that because the copper is galvanically corroding it is essentially welding itself to the steel nut instead of just the friction from interference formed from a less dense rust forming like most rusted nuts.

Not bad tools, more like user error lol, should have used the flame and impact from the start. Entertaining vid tho, you should make a video series of you destroying harbor freight tools :D

I just broke 2 duralast breaker bars.. the 3/4 drive should do it granted you use the socket it takes rather than adapter...the race isn't on the axel it's part of bearing that gets stuck on hub

What if you don't have the 36mm . Any ideas? I can't get a monkey wrench on it straight cuz of studs. Ideas would be appreciated

You need a 36MM socket, that’s the only way. Go rent one from a parts store.

Imagine that, a harbor freight tools failed. Not surprising though, that's a lot of sheer load from hopping on a breaker bar.

I got the nut off with my m12 stubby. I can’t get the spindle to go back in. Even heating it up and pounding with a mini sledge.

Ok so how can we do it without an impact? I think most people are searching this on youtube because they don’t have an impact gun and hoping they would be able to do it with a breaker bar.

Good vid, $6 was too much for that reducer and that HF breaker bar was no bargain either. Based on those HF tools it will be a tough sell for HF to convince people that there new Icon tools are as good as Snap-On tools.

Funny you say that, I was in my local HF the other day looking at their ICON 1/2 breaker bar and it's exactly the same one that I have in this video. All they did was put makeup on a pig... I do have to say though, their ICON line of ratchets is very, very, good. If you can I highly recommend them. Working on review videos about them.

I don't have an impact so I would have used a 3/4 drive socket and breaker bar, a tight 36mm nut is a lot to ask for a 1/2 inch drive.
