Ok how have people managed to get their castle nut off that hold the driveshaft into the hub? i tried it tactically and then with brute force and ended up breaking my wrench lol.
I had this problem the other week, only I had no suspension on the car so couldn't use the weight of the car. Biggest breaker bar/scaffolding pipe you can get will crack those badboys off.
before i attempt this again with the suggested ideas does anyone know if to take the nut off do you have to turn it clockwise or anti clockwise? as i know with some cars you have to do it clockwise cos they have a left handed thread
Thirded! And a breaker bar is ideal or a length of pipe that fits over teh wrench. Some ratchet mechanisms wont cope with the torque hence why a breaker bar is better.
