Subject:Harbor Freight 3/4" drive breaker bar?
From:Don Hanson <dhanson928@GMAIL.COM>
Date:Fri, 22 Jul 2011 06:24:44 -0700

I see HF sells one for under $20.  Has anyone used one of these to remove
and replace the rear axle nut on a Vanagon without breaking it?  The ad copy
says it is guaranteed for 750 ft/lbs of torque...

  Anyway, I broke another 1/2" drive (from Harbor Freight, actually) trying
to loosen the axle nut, so now I am going to get a 3/4" drive like everyone
told me to do.  My nearest HF is an hr away, so I don't want to waste my
time if the wrench is likely to break anyhow...

  Thanks, Don Hanson
