I'm changing the Yoke on my rearend and the 1 5/16 nut won't come off.

I'm using a 3 foot breaker bar I know I've atleast put 75 pounds of force into the handle that's atleast 215 lbs into the nut.

What kind of torque do they put these on with.

I ordered the new Yoke and coresponding u-joint from Dennies drive shaft.
