Removing Stuck Nut

Recommended Posts

miamistu

I'm having a bit of a time removing the two nuts that hold on brackets on the lower front valance.

 

I can get a socket over the nut but when I start to put any significant pressure on it the whole valance starts to bend. Any tips?

Cheers :lol:

looks like you coated it in wd40, i just held the driving light as thats how the bolt is secured from rotating, expect a little bit of flex in the valance though

Just get a helper to hold the driving light and stop it rotating....the thread is very captive inside the driving light so quite a lot of force can be applied

Righto - cheers. If that fails my father's got a hydraulic nut splitter kicking about. :o
