hub NUT @%$#
Welp. Working on the gsr swap as of now. Got all the wires and hoses out of the way. Got one hub nut off.. Went to get the other.. Damn thing wont budge. Tried breaker bar > no go
Tried This thing where you hammer it and it rotates the socket > no go
Tried hammer + breaker bar > no go
Tried fat friend + breaker ber > no go
Tried breaker bar plus long ******* leaver > broken breaker bar
Tried same as above again > broke breaker bar # 2. ( god thanks for craftsman )
Bought Air compressor and tried impact gun > no go
now cars being towed to local auto shop where they have the big guns and compressors. There doing it free of charge, but the towing is costing me 65$

HMMMM the nut sound frozen lol.
My friend had a bolt on his suspension frozen on so he took it to honda and they heated it up with a torch and took it off.

Re: hub NUT @%$# (Eee Pee)
take it to a shop with a air gun of a higher power rating perhaps.. and bust it off, and put it back just hand tight and drive home slowly.
