Breaker Bars

Well, I'm swapping transmissions on my 3rd gen. I had trouble with an axle nut and I bent then, broke my good ole 17" breaker bar. I went to Autozone and ask for their best one. They had a 24" one with a nice rubber grip on it and it said "guaranteed for life" on it in several places. To make a long story short it got the job done. It's a damn solid bar too. I'm about 6'1" 200lbs and I literally jumped with all my weight on it at least 6 times until that axle nut finally broke loose. I was impressed with it.

Ive got a 17" that looks just like your bent one...never had probs with it tho. Ofcourse I used a impact gun to get the axle nuts.

I have 2 craftsman one 18" and the other 26" IIRC. I beat the hell out of them too (cheaterbars and etc...), the longer of the two is actually from the 70's.
