Can't Get Calipers Off

[Lexus Jim]

Just been trying to take my front calipers off and have broken 2 spaners and a socket set head. have got the top one off but the bottom one still won't budge. both been soaking in wd40 for a while. any suggestions before I go and buy some more spanners

you might be better off with a bolt-splitter mate

Impact driver would be better.

long extension bar always works for me... to give more leverage when applying pressure

thats how I keep breaking spanners!

cheers for your advice guys. gonna buy me a new spanner (decent one this time) and if I break that I'll try and use an impact driver at a garage

I used a 3ft long breaker bar fitted to a high quality socket, no problems

can't really help but goodluck, know how annoying this can be!
