    What I have had to do in the past

    I have been in a big old truck a few years ago and had a flat. The lug nuts were the same way. The trucks kit had a small bar to help brake them loose but they were wayyyy to tight.
    What I ended up doing was place the socket on the lug nut and set the braker bar so that it was just bairly off the ground then got back in the truck and slowly drove it forward. In doing so it was braking loose the lug nuts. I did this for ever nut and it worked.
    Just a crazy idea that worked for me could help you out some time.

    finally got it undone. bought a $50 staney tool thing. still couln't get it to budge untill i got the mrs to stand on the brake and it came undone easy.

    i think the issue was the drive shaft had come out of the cv joint so when i was trying to undo the nut everything was twisting rather than the nut turning. all good now though. thanks for the tips fellas
