Trying to get this top nut off to replae my strut bushings and bearings.
Here's my tool setup -- spark plug socket with a sawed-off 7 mm allen wrench with a 7 socket connected with few adaptors to size it up to a 1/2 inch breaker bar.

I soaked the nut with penetrant and let it sit for a while and the damn thing still won't budge. Eventually I sheared off the end of the adaptor:

Anyone willing to loan me a hazet tool to get this thing off? I don't know what else to do... unless someone has any ideas.
