I used to have a pipe that I used for years... Until one day, I destroyed a 3/8" ratchet wrench from hammering on the pipe while trying to break a bolt loose. It was fun while it lasted. I took that as an opportunity to upgrade to an actual breaker bar.A length of black iron/lead pipe makes an indestructible breaker bar that slips over ratchet handles, mine is going on 15yrs still undefeated![]()
I'm sure I'm not the only one that's done this, but has anyone used a big combination wrench over the end of a ratchet wrench for some additional leverage? It's a little bit of a pain, but it works in a pinch.
