Thanks Tim

THis was a 1/2 inch breaker bar....almost 3 feet long...it had always removed the most stubborn bolts without a groan until today. I got it free years ago from Harbour Freight for buying something else....thought pretty good until now.

Yes, I have broken 2 Craftsman 1/2"drive extensions while torquing the rear axle nuts.
