Thanks. Supercheap sell a toledo one for around $150 as well, but only online. I was hoping to get the darn thing off sometime today.....

So, a 3/4 drive rattle gun and a fairly decent compressor I borrowed and still no luck. Guess I'll be buying one of those hand impact thingys so I can hit myself with a hammer. Joy.

Way to Go, if this don't work, you're in strife, Good Luck, Regards Frank.

You mentioned a possible solution before which I have done in the past, but there is an easier way. Good strong bar 3/4 socket well on and keep checking it does not slip and chew things. A very good large bottle jack on the end of the bar. Jack up the bar, if it starts to lift the car bounce on the car and the shock should release the nut, a wack with a lump hammer can do the same when it is under load too, but a bounce is easier. I doubt the nut will resist this, a bit of heat before you start will ensure success. If you have a large ring spanner it is less likely to slips under load.
I hope this does the trick.

Maybe one of these would work?

Those things are awesome. We have one at work. But there's no room for it in there unless I remove the A/C condenser. I don't want to do that if I don't have to.

Oh ok. Figured if you could fit a rattle gun in there that you could fit that in there too :)

Yeah. My 3/4 rattle gun only just squeezes in with the condenser pushed back as far as I dare. Those things are longer. :mad:
