Standard bar and 6 foot of pipe.
Take off the wheels and lean all the studs and lube with anti seize.
They don't need to be tighten to a 100kg man hanging off the end of a 6 foot pipe

cheers

I found the torque multiplier wrenches were by far the best bet. This is just an example www.ebay.com.au/itm/TORQUE-MULTIPLIER-TRUCK-WHEEL-NUT-SOCKETS-CRACKER-WRENCH-TOOL-TYRE-TORQUE-TORQ/323342910107 just make sure you order one with the sockets that suit your vehicle. Saved my bacon on a number of occasions, I'm not good at the bouncing up and down on a long bar these days

The link Terry has posted torque multiplayer. Is what I have . Mainly good on 20mm or so threads . Just MAKE sure your turning
Nut the correct way . I use graphite grease on wheel
Studs . If not available a 1m or so 50mm pipe for leverage does the trick . Other than
good rope tied to handle and driving forward or backwards just to break thread .

I bought one of these from Repco.

My ex could use it on truck Lug nuts quite easily.

All you need is the correct socket for your Nuts.

Hi smile

AS has been said, just make sure you know which way you are trying to turn the nut with these high torque devices or you will screw the thread or the stud hmm .

Left hand side, left hand thread biggrin The end of the studs are marked L.

Not hard to get confused between which way you need the foot to go and which way you want the nut to go when the nut and stud is L/H thread :lol: It is totally against everything your brain has stored away after 50 yrs of mechanicing, you can reverse one way but then you have to reverse the reverse for the direction the foot needs to go so it rest up against the next nut around. Having the brains scramble in a hit from behind accident just adds to the fun and games confuse

Yes I try looking at the tapper or angle if thread . Especially the first time when your unsure and bloody thing is as tight as ! Am I turning the right way . Right tight . Yes after 50 years hard to do !! Often there are nicks in nut or L on stud ??

Another option is the Milwaukee 1 inch impact cordless wrench!
