Thanks for the video! This technique worked. I used a wood block on the jack and LOTS OF PATIENCE. PB blaster was not enough. Not for the several days prior to viewing this vid. Not with muscle and an extension on the bar, PB and propane heat. I refused to drill or torch it off. [3 days later] Switched to 3 in 1 oil on jack day for better lubrication. I had just seen the video using a candle to work wax into the threads but I dod not want the extra soot and goop in the threads. Switched to MAP gas heating. Never heated the axle or nut over 115°F. All the heat went straight to the axle stub and stayed there. Cold chisle-tapped marks into the hub and wiped some paint into the mark to confirm (and deny) ANY rotation of the axle nut. Raised the jack until the bar began to bend then paused. Carefully tapped the socket and swivel a bunch. Then released pressure and checked for rotaion. None. More heat and oil and PB. Lots of tapping. Lots of patience. Time for a Safety Break. Leaving the bar under tension with the jack imperceptibly rotated the nut. The tick marks gave proof! Repeated the process several times on the tough side. The heat made the PB and oil run away, seemingly removing grit and rust in the process. Re-oil the warm threads and PB the collar, tappy-tap-tap and add the pressure from the jack until the bar bends. Tap the socket and swivel. Because. After about 10 cycles over a few hours of doing other stuff the NUT TURNED less than one degree of rotaion. PHEW. So I did the heat and oil, bent the bar and went to lunch. Did some praying and singing. Upon return the bar had unbent! About 6° of rotation (kevinbacon). Then I got the jack to break the nut loose just like in this video. So easy!
Mine did not budge. I lifted it with the jack untill the car started to raise off the ground, but not enough that it will spin tire, then I hit the back of the tool with a hammer very hard lots of times, i almost gave up then i tried it by hand rocking the car with my heavy pulling and then it broke free it was fucking awesome. Use pb blaster.
I might try chocking the wheel for my next video. If the jack and breaker bar lift the wheel off the ground, I'd probably try pushing down on the bumper to add my weight to that corner of the car.
@@drchungj thanks but. I broke it free like a man. With my bare hands after the method I poorly described. I would also like to note I'm deep in the rust belt.

This has been the best method I’ve ever learned. 💪🏼
This has changed my life.
Well done a good floor jack makes us all have super hero strength.
Tried this but it didn't work for me 😞
Nothing can't beat a hidrolyc press.
Dangerous when the bar pops off. I use a 3' pipe on my 2' breaker and lift.
no
Common sense for the win
