I stood on a 4' snipe to get mine off. Had to jump on it to brake loose. Surprised nothing broke.

Keep the wheel on so it's holding on to the floor. Grab a jack handle, slip it over your breaker bar or something and stand on it. Get a couple buddies to stand on it too.

This shit.

MAKE FUCKING SURE to torque it to proper specs. If you put that shit on too tight it WILL kill the bearing pre-maturely. TRUST ME, it fucking sucks killing a BRAND NEW goddamn bearing in two weeks of driving. :madfawk:

pb blaster... don't try to break a 20 year old nut without it.... then follow the wheel on ground with 1/2 sockets and a jack handle. Works 100% of the tiem
