One of the nuts is a left-hand thread. Think it's on the passenger side--for a LHD car--but it's the same as the marking on the knockoffs. bs -- ** Bob Spidell San Jose, CA bspidell@comcast.net ** __

If it's the nut I think it is I had the same problem until I got the made for purpose 2 13/64" socket from AH Spares and used by impact wrench. After that it came off like a charm. You might be able

A sturdy four sided "box socket" will work too. Many of you purchased one a few years back and probably put them away and for got about them. What was the success rate on those just out of curiosity?
