https://xoutpost.com/bmw-sav-forums/...t-removal.html Especially useful in places where you can't get a long lever in there or stand on a breaker bar. If I did not have that tool, in this case I would do it by standing on a breaker bar at the proper radius. Also, looking at that youtube video, I'll point out that there are at least two distinct classes of tools like this. The one I used in that linked thread, and the one you mention, are general purpose things to get about 3-4x multiplication (I think mine says 4x gearing, but due to losses, the torque is 3.3x). The one shown in that video is a 25x (standard for that type) that is kind of a special purpose tool for lug nuts on heavy equipment. So the bracing bar there is meant to butt up against a neighboring lug nut, vs. on the general purpose ones, there is a place to accept a bracing bar so you can choose the length based on what's available and brace it against what you can. In my case there I used a jack stand to brace against. So just in case someone out there wants to get one, consider the 3-4x ones more general purpose tools that you'd be able to use.

I want one of those torque multipliers very badly. Found a couple in the just over $200 range. 4:1 gear ratio usually about 3.3:1 torque ratio so read the manual (or the label on the side).
I was going to get one last time I had to remove an axle nut that wouldn't budge with 4' breaker bar so I bought the 1100 ft·lb M18 Milwaukee high torque Impact. I still want the torque multiplier as it's much more controlled power for pressing bearings in-place. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
