I second the 3/4" breaker bar suggestion.  I broke my Dad's 1/2" breaker bar trying to remove a lug nut.

Lemme say this about that.  The REAL macho dudes who have shiny black studs
at their disposal get a 3/4" breaker bar and a 19.09 mm Impact Socket to do
the nut wenching deed.  Cheap and it can be used as a self defence item in
those seamy sections of town...where even the squlls carry.


Harbor Freight has em, SnappyTool has em, Matco has em, Craftsman has
em...lots to choose from.
