The John Muir book has a good suggestion for this, but basically you have to get the socket (36mm I think), a prybar and a long
pipe that you can extend the prybar with ( I use one that is about 3-4 feet long). Then you jump on it, shove it, whatever you
can do to get it loose.

I'm having a problem removing the nut on the rear axle of my Vanagon. Any
suggestions?
