87 300D Axle Nut Removal ???

I'm trying to replace my halfshafts. I was able to remove the axle nut on the first with an impact gun. The other one is not giving up easily. I have the subframe sitting on my workbench with the axle trapped in my vise. I pried up the little indent that locks the nut to the shaft. I have PB Blasted it, heated it and I cannot budge it with an 18" breaker bar. I am turning, or trying to, turn the nut counterclockwise. I'm looking for a piece of pipe for more leverage. Maybe I could heat the nut some more, it wasn't glowing!
Any other ideas?
