quick striped integra nut question

Hey guys, My freind striped a nut on his integra replacing his uopper a arm, its an easy to get to nut, in the engine bay, but its stripped. How should we go about getting it out? its a 17 mm, and requires a deep socket.

"you guys are worthless,"

No really! There's a tool that's designed just for cracking nuts that spin without unscrewing...

Yeah I have a Craftsman one, though I thought it was called a nut buster. You're talking about the thing that slides over the nut, and then you tighten something similar to a big set screw but it has a point that splits teh nut, right?
