Great minds think alike.
Mine is a 4' length of 2" conduit.
I've used it to remove axle nuts that were torqued to 350 ft/lb, before they got rusted on good!

Here is a pic of this tool on the Boxster (Note: this is only for photographic purposes - I would never use this to tighten a lug bolt!)

What big tools do you use?
