Hi Lane
Buy a 3/4" breaker bar,3" extension and the correct socket,27 or 32mm from memory.MUCH better than a standard wheelbrace.

I have done similar - there is an extendable 'wheelbrace' bar available from SuperCheapAuto that has reversable heads for different sized wheel nuts. It has a 1/2" drive so I purchased a 27mm and a 15/16" socket and it is fine for either of my landies.

I did the same as i brought a landy one & just about twisted it to the point where if i was to use it again it would snap..

Lane I think I have a spare that you can have I will look tonight and let you know

A thank you to all here

I wanted to express a big thank you to all here who were so incredibly helpful as we worked our way through this project. It's a credit to the Landy community that a newbie can be welcomed with such enthusiasm and generosity. Thanks to everybody again - we're really grateful.

Regards,
Lane.

Clenton Rd.

We are enjoying the old girl, TJ. :)

As a by the by, went up into Gidgegannup on Sunday and found ourselves on Clenton Rd, which I have never driven before. What a road! Commented to the wife, "I need to drive this in the Peugeot!" Saw a set of four car parking bays by the side of the road with a rock behind them, and thought "What on earth is that?" so pulled in to have a look. It was a memorial. "Oh, this is where Peter Brock died." Sobering moment.
