Put the closed end wrench on there and pop it with a hammer. Adjustables are bad for anything tight.

I doubt he has a 22mm box end. Just go buy a socket and a ratchet + breaker bar = win. Get a long bar while you're at it and apply pressure slowly. Hopefully you won't shear the bolt.
right you are.. ive got a pretty good tool collection.. but alas.. only up to 19mm box end wrenches... i went out to buy a 22mm wrench.. advanced auto and autozone only had up to 19mm too... so i suppose ill be going to sears tomorrow
I got mine at Ace hardware for around 1/2 the price of the craftsman. Lowe's and Home Despot are charging just as much as Sears these days.
Those cheap MIT wrenches at some mega gas stations and flea markets can be had in full sets for less than one Craftsman wrench and would work fine for occasional/light use, too.
Craftsman is guaranteed for life and I don't think Sears is going out of business any time soon. In my opinion you're better off spending more now for something good that will last. In the long run it'll save you money AND headaches.

Never skimp on tools. It's immoral.

yeah, im a craftsman guy through and through, id say about 80% of my tools are craftsman.. and i dont regret any of it, ive probably gotten $200 in replacement tools from sears, because of the warranty i dont have to worry about abusing any of them
ive also had some el-cheapo tools break on me.. resulting in trips to the hospital.. no good!
