Around 20-30 bucks for a breaker bar. More for a better one. Well worth it. Make sure its 1/2 inch and get some good sockets.

You don't know what a breaker bar is? I can't wait to see this paint job. I suppose you picked up some quality spray bombs from autozone to paint your wheels with?

If i remember correctly the end of the stock tool is open ended shove a pipe in there and voila your done...


or if you dont have anything to put in the end of the stock wrench, man up and power through that chit.

I use a 3 inch diameter very heavy metal pipe, wrap it in old towels, stick the wrench through the middle and put some weight on it. Try that first and orchard should still be open. If you don't have a pipe, let me know. I'm pretty close to you.
