How much force to remove differential plug??

I have my 18 inch breaker bar and my 14 mm hex socket ready to remove my differential plugs. They are really tight and I'm a bit afraid of breaking something (I don't care about the tools...only the car).

Does anyone have any experience...do you remember about how much force it took? 50 ft-lbs, 100, 150??

Any tips?

Thanks
Joe

PS...glad to see the board alive today!!
