Default How is the KFX450R Rear Wheel Hub threaded?

I am trying to replace my KFX450R Rear Wheel Hub with a new one because my tire fell off and jacked the hub up, but I can't get the bolt off. How is it threaded? Reverse or right? I did take the pin out by the way so that is not the reason. I have tried an impact both ways but the son of a gun won't come off. I first tried right with a regular wrench so maybeI tightened it too much?

use some penetrating oil and heat too. and when you put it back on put some anti - sieze on the threads. so next time it'll come right off..

thanks guys. I will try in just a sec. I don't have the impact anymore but I have a hammer wrench which is prolly just as good. I'll post back if it works.

Well I stripped the nut. The impact wouldn't even take it off and so we tried a hammer wrench and stripped it. I guess now we will have to straighten the bolts back out and rethread them and get some new lug nuts. So I guess this one stays on. I don't know why it is so dang tight.

Ok I fixed it. Popped out the bolts already in there and went to tractor supply and got the same size. Tightened the **** out of them with an impact so we should be good now.
