This nut is on tight as hell. Any ideas on breaking this loose?

WD40, flare wrench and a rubber mallet..... Works for all the ones I've had to crack off

 

[Right on the Mark]

After all the guys say pb blaster just heat it up. I don't know how many of you guys can do exh work without torch set!! Well I live in Northeast too.

You have flare wrenches that big???? WOW

PB Blaster soak, and if that don't work, heat it first with a torch.

I did heat it up, but I guess I'll heat it up longer. The whole tube is spinning right now.

Yep....

You might try smacking the wrench with a hammer - the shock may help start it loose (I've done it).

OK, are you saying that you need two wrenches to get the tube off? I don't want to strip anything.

When i mention heat I mean oxy/acetylene not a propane torch. If you heat red everything comes off.

FINALLY! I hot that dam thing off. Is it supposed to be bent like that? I'm thinking not.
