Default 93 626 Axel Nut Stuck

I have a 93 626 that I can not remove the Axle nuts to replace the driveshafts. Are these left hand threaded nuts? I've actually tried both ways but can not get the nuts to move. I have chiseled out where the nut is pinned. I used a large breaker bar and snapped the wrench trying to remove. Anyone have any ideas?

Default Same problem

I recently changed out the passenger side axle on my gf's 00 626 and had the same problem. What I did was to spray penetrating oil all over the nut, top and bottom and left it overnight. The next day I gently hit the axle and nut with a hammer to try to loosen them and after a few time doing that I used a breaker bar with a " cheater bar " ontop of that. The bar I used was from my floor jack and it worked out pretty good. Hope i was some help to you and good luck.
