I'd call it an if-all-else-fails option. I've seen sockets and breaker bars shatter and even a hole in the oil pan. But sometimes you gotta do what ya gotta do.

Edit: If you are going to use this method, it will help protect your floor if you will put a 2x8 (or similar) or a piece of heavy plywood on the floor where the bar will hit.

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.
