Axle nut......help

First of all hi, just joined up and I need  little help.

I have a Mk1 clipper that failed its MOT due to a split cv boot and obviously I need to replace it, I have tried to remove the axle nut to get the driveshaft out however it wont shift.

I have tried Brute force, long handled breaker bar (which broke) Impact driver, Impact wrench and heat none of it seems to have worked, any suggestions on how to get the thing off, I don't really want to have to use one of those CV boots that comes in 2 halves.

Thanks for reading.

left hand thread.

Tried both ways…won't budge

Been there , actually broke my long bar on it, drilled it of in the end,

These are not left hand thread.  Need a long braker bar that won't break!  I have a 3ft one that you have to jump on to shift them!

Never had a problem with them

Cheers

Managed to get it undone now, found a long wrench and used some brute force.

i found a 3 foot ally scaffold pole on the end of my breaker bar does the job well

You can always cut it off. Most boot kits come with a new nut anyway.
