Try turning it counter-clockwise this time. :P
Seriously, unless it is all rusted up, you really are just going to have to try harder or get an impact gun on it.

23 lb friend ... lol ... hit it with an impact wrench, if you dont have one, stop by a gas station and have them hit it ... then tighten it back with a torque wrench to spec, should come right off with a regular socket back at your place.
