Expert Reply:
The base of the adapter gets tightened to 1,200 ft lbs of torque. The install recommendation is a 4 foot cheater pipe. You are going to want to use at least a 4 foot long cheater pipe that is stronger than the one you currently broke to get it loose.
The longer the bar you use the more leverage you will end up having.
