daz2905 Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 These work, providing you have enough clearance around the nut/bolt for them to fit over. Not so great on certain alloys. LINK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpion Posted July 26, 2017 Author Share Posted July 26, 2017 Cheers guys. I've tried the socket and a big club hammer... No good. Have doused the nut with wd40 this evening, I'll give it another crack tomorrow. Those sockets look interesting. If I get no joy with WHOWILLFIXMYCAR I might have to give those a try.

Sh4ckles Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Heat it up if you have a blow torch then try whilst it's still hot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scorpion Posted July 27, 2017 Author Share Posted July 27, 2017 Didn't fancy spunking any dosh on ideas that might not work, so I cut my losses. Took it to a local tyre shop and the guy there managed to get the nut of for me. Just want the weathe to clear long enough so I can get under the car and change the shocks... I wonder if they will give me as much trouble.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
