Here's my far less eloquent attack on a 200q20v crankshaft pulley.

I always put a jackstand under the socket extension near the breaker bar to
prevent twisting on the bolt head and socket. I do this with for the wheel
bolts when doing suspension work or replacing an axle shaft as well. All four
tires on the ground for either of these, to prevent a nasty fall.
May not matter much, but a rounded bolt head would be a huge bummer in these
two places.
Out of curiosity, has anyone broken a breaker bar doing this kind of work?
Last time I did a timing belt job, the breaker bar seemed like it was under
far more strain than my trusty craftsman 1/2-in ratcheting socket wrench.

91 200q 20v up for grabs
88 80q running strong, although tires need daily air injection
