Does anybody have any tips on removing the big nut on the rear axle of a
Vanagon?  I'm trying to replace the rear brake shoes, and the big nut won't
come off so that I can get at the brakes themselves.  I have tried a 5 foot
cheater pipe, but all that does is spin the wheel (yes it is on the ground,
in gear, with the emergency brake applied).  I am thinking about cutting the
nut off, but I don't see them listed on any of the usual sites and am sure
that my local FLAPS doesn't have them.
