The castle nut.... hahhahahahah!

I did that LAST weekend. An impact wrench didn't do it alone. I had to heat the nut with a torch, and break it loose. It took several heat/impact wrench sessions.

A 4 foot breaker bar didn't phase the castle nut with all my weight on it.

Keep us posted and welcome to the group.

Good luck!

Oh, and remember to remove the cotter pin first.

...Don't ask me how I know to check that... (Thankfully it wasn't the axle nut, but it was plenty bad enough!!)

Liquid wrench and a two foot flex bar and the castle nut came right off.
If only the rest goes as well!

Pep Boys has the axle that I can special order so all I need is the 12 point wrench
to get the CV bolts out.


wish me luck (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mueba.gif)
