just like taking it off, impact gun is the best way to go.

stop being a girl and just tighten it down the best you can, if you are worried about the engine spinning when you try to tighten it, just set the car down on the ground and put it in gear.

Put the car in gear and use your muscles. Worked for me....but I'm strong so you may have a hard time

take your bracker bar put it on the crank bolt wedge the bracker bar against the lower control arm and bump the starter a few times it works perfect.

i always use an old jack bar as a breaker bar. put it over the end of a wrench. or you can use an old tourqe wrench, they're pretty long.
