You've broken breaker bars??? Are you 100% sure you are turning the bolt anti-clockwise?

While those are very tight ( 140 lb-ft) i echo Kris' question. Alternate question: what brand of breaker bar. I took mine off with a bar anda pipe on the end.

You need just a good combination wrench and a bit heavier hammer. Impact is much stronger than a steady torque.

yea, if you can make it work, but a good breaker bar and a pipe works fine every time. if you are turning it the right direciton, of course.
