Ive tried lubing it, torching it, and 24inch breaker bar and the nut will not come off. I know lefty loosy righty tighty. Next option is hit it with a air comp(clack clack clack). Does anyone have other ideas? I do not want to bust the nut lol. Thanks! Attachments:

Use an impact wrench/drive.

+1 on the impact gun. You can buy an emergency one that connects to a battery instead of using compressed air. They cost around $30 and work well on scooter stuff. I bought mine from o'reilly autoparts.

I've heard from various places that the ones that connect to batteries aren't that powerful or long-lasting. I actually borrow a friend's electric impact wrench; just plugs into the wall, insane torque power. Got both nuts off with little effort.

I've never had a problem with this nut, then again I never did consider taking it off by hand, rather I followed what the guys said and used an impact, it's the best way... The electric ones are fine for short bursts and light jobs but it should take that nut right off, they don't lack power in that sense.
