How I removed my axle nuts is with a very stout 3/4 breaker bar from HF, and then I used my floor jack on the end of the handle to lift it up and provide the loosening power.

For the transmission flange bolts, when I had the axle off I rolled up a piece of a blue paper shop towel and shot some brake cleaner on it, and then threaded it through the bolt holes and twisted it around to make sure that there was no grease in there. Then I used thread insensitive Loctite on the bolts and torqued them up, so far they have been holding good.
