Axle Nut?!....

[hancockd]

are you trying to get it off with the wheel off of the ground? i've always had great luck with the tire on the ground holding everything in place

axle nut not lug nut noob

mine came off with an impact...

 

[Misterd0505]

i've been hittin it w/ a torch and my impact all day... nothin... it's ****in aggravatin me

I would say drive it to a shop and have them loosen it but you can't, lol. I know its aggravating but you just gotta keep getting at it. Soak the crap out of it, let it sit, hold the torch on it for 5-10min, then try again.

I feel you man. Sometimes these things can cause major frustration.

actually i got off the hub with the outer end of the axle still in it (axle completely snapped in half)... so i'm gonna take it to a shop and have the try and torch or do w/e to get it off... i only have an 8 gal. compressor and a propane torch : [
