Default Pinion Nut

Trying to remove the pinion nut on a '92 Dak rear end and we are having no luck. Any suggestions or tricks? Thanks

Impact wrench will do it with ease. Electric or air.

Thanks for the replies. Got a big old electric impact and that did the job.

i used heat and a b/a impact gun (which broke right after it loosened). make sure you torque the bolt for it to specs when you put it back on...
