Are you using a ratchet or a breaker bar? Also might want to hit it with some WD-40.
Just curious, which camber kit did you get?

Try using a breaker bar. You can get more leaverage and wont bust the gears in your ratchet.

if all else fails find a bar with a big enough hole and slip it over your ratchet. o_O
