axle nut vs. breaker bar + worst repair nominations

[roccit_53 at scirocco.cs.uoguelph.ca (C Boyko)]

Maybe someone standing on the brake will keep it more still. And I use Mr
Galvanized Fence Post over Mr Two Foot Johnson bar, I'm weak, and have had
good success. My son had one that would not move, I think he may have
applied ice after the heat to shake things up. (I did this on a sheared
strut bolt once too) GL, and it'll just pop off there one try and you'll
wonder what it's problem was. Leverage is your friend though, and lots of
it.
