First this can be potentionally dangerous.....so use at your own risk. By now I guess everybody knows about more leverage. Trying to get a wheel nut off. Use a breaker bar and an impact socket ( do not use regular sockets and ratchet type wrenches). Put a section of pipe over the end of the breaker bar to get more leverage. Try to use your foot to push down with, watch out for the possabillity of the pipe flying back at you. There are also other risks. I once used this on a PU truck to get the impeller nut off . When I pushed down on the section of pipe, it turned the impeller shaft turn ing the rear wheels and moving the truck forward. It got the nut off, Get ER DONE

don't forget smaller bolts and 2 wrenches.. put the box end wrench on the nut or bolt put another box end wrench on the open end of the other wrench and pull or push to loosen a stubborn nut
