    Subframe removal Problems ! front nuts spinning on 2 front subframe bolts !

    phil ive soaked them up. did you use impact gun or a socket wrench ? same here on the front, got half way then they started spinning, i'm hoping rears will be easier. just waiting for someone to drop off 18mm socket, dont know whether to use impact wrench or just try socket set on it ?
