When we used pin drive hubs on the race cars... we used nuts that were aluminum.... and we torqued them to 250 lbs.... then when we came off the track we needed a 3/4" 6ft long torque wrench to remove the nuts.... if we were in a hurry like a pit stop.... then we used a 1" drive impact gun..... .... also heat up the spinner so it will expand.... propane torch will work just fine.

Most of the time when we took the nuts off ...it took 650 lbs to break the nut loose....

And we only tightened them to 250 lbs to begin with.....

So go get the bar and tool and take that spinner off.
