Thanks everyone. I've found that, assuming the nut is clean, just marking between the nut and shaft itself then snapping a photo will usually make it self explanatory the number of turns required. Of course this assumes the mark won't get worn off when you unscrew the nut, which could happen with these lock nuts. Even then counting the number of threads in the photo will usually get you back on track. Am going to HF tomorrow to get a bigger breaker bar and also an exact 1-3/8 socket unless I can find one to borrow (was using a 1-7/16)

I have a fairly short breaker bar, but I learned a long time ago that the handle to my floor jack could slip over the handle on the breaker bar. This now have me a 3 foot long breaker.
