Use an Impact wrench. Proper sizes socket + 1/2 " impact = easy job. ONLY USE IT FOR REMOVAL. DO NOT use it when you install or bad things will happen.

We have a $90 battery operated unit from Pep Boys (says Goodyear on it) and we use the crud out of it, both at the track and at home. Well worth the money.
