1997 3.0CL, bottom knuckle nut stuck

Hi, my first post on this forum.
I have a 1997 3.0CL with about 250K miles,
I'm trying to replace brake rotors by myself.
God damn captive brakes, doing good so far.
The problem i can't open the lower knuckle/control arm nut,
all the others went out just fine.
I tried manually, then with electric impact, then manually with long extension tube, nothing moves.

any advise ?
