I got my cat bolts off with this breakerbar and a 6 foot pole, really doubt either is going to snap from the crank bolt. Actually twisted an 18in extension with the torque though before those nuts broke loose.


Good note, but I'm sitting in an apartment complex parking lot.

Will keep everyone posted when I try after work.
