Buy a cheap frrt frrrt

>>16455788
WD-40, wait a couple of minutes, try the breaker bar again.

>>16455788
Just make sure to thoroughly clean it out after.

>>16455797
those cheap ones dont even work tho

I bought one for like $10 and i swear to god my air ratchet has more power

>>16455788
Try standing in the thing. But only on the solid tool in the cars toolbox, not on an expensive variable torque tool.

Also make sure you try to turn the right way and you jack up the relevant tire just a little when loosening the nuts, then jack up fully to change the tire.

Seriously, i'm skeletal as fuck and i manage it easily

Introduce it to the meaning of torque. Get a floor jack, and put the end of the bar on it (kind of like in the picture). There's a picture of someone doing it but I can't find it

>>16455752
Take the floor jack handle off and put it over your tire iron and it will break loose

Why don't you ask your boyfriend to do the hard work for you?

>>16455864
That was a pretty common thing up in to the '60s
They usually have an "L" on the end of the stud though.

ok guys I got now.

now I have another problem - when I'm jacking it it's starting to creak and it looks like the jack is pushing into and bending the frame rails. Is this normal?

>>16456098
Are you jacking it up on the subframe?

no I'm using the jack points that they said to in the owners manual. pic related

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>>16456159
That's a pinch weld not a frame rail. Put a hockey puck between the floor jack and the pinch weld and it won't bend. But couls.just be rusty.

>>16456063
They do, that's what gave me the brain jog to try whacking them the other way

>>16456169

ok Ill try that thanks

Heh...heh..

>>16456159
That is where you jack it up.
Yes it will probbly bend. Ignore it.
t. Changed 100s of tires with no problems

Seriously, how do you guys even have these issues

>Car needs to be lifted
>No longer strong enough to just hold it over my head with one hand and work with the other

I need to start working out again.

>>16455788
if you're jumping on it wouldn't that mean you're rotating them clockwise i.e. tightening them?

>>16458187
nevermind i'm high as hell, disregard
