Hi Randy,

I have a 3' piece of thin wall steel tube, looks like 1-1/2" EMT Electrical conduit. It's handy lever arm for stubborn stuff like hub nuts and wheel lug nuts torqued to 1200 ft/lbs by some tire ape when you're not looking.
Get the lug nut free or snap off the stud to free the tire.
Can you replace a broken stud in a hub?

I used that extension on with a 1/2" ratchet to crack the stubborn
caliper bracket screws. I had the car up higher, jacking up from a ramp,
to swing the breaker bar, learning from the fiasco on the other side.

I used it on the torque wrench and 3/4" HF breaker bar to get the +45
No sense in getting heart failure with over exertion.
The 3/4" drive socket set from HF has came in handy for hubs and AWD
drive axles. The sockets are also good for installing seals.

"intermittents are the worst" Amen to that keen observation.

All machines are relentlessly struggling 24/7
to reach their state of Nirvana,
Busted.
It's what they do.

Except sometimes they play with you first.

Cheers, Bill
