Trouble removing axle nut jeep liberty

[rockyfatcat]

You do know that the ball joints are under a recall, check if yours are

? How do I do that?

Soak in pb blaster over night and try again. They are common thread,so lefty loosey.

Did you remove the cotter pin? And safety lock washer thing?

So I am fixing to replace the ball joints. I have everything else either off or loose. My impact gun is rated to 250 ft lbs, and the torque spec on the axle nuts are 100 ft lbs.

I just couldn't get that 35mm nut to budge!

Any help?

heat and a breaker bar with a cheater...use some aero kroil lube..it WILL come off
