    Well then you will need 415 Volt power to run the Big compressot to run the 1" rattle gun, could try fitting a socket and breaker bar up, jammed against the chassis or something and turning the steering to crack it, the nut that is and hopefully not the steering box, Regards Frank.

    I had thought of using power assisted nut cracking...

    i guess the risk is damaging ball joints/ rods. May be worth it!

    Got 'im!

    I went with Matts suggestion...

    Was it I. Newton who said "give me a long enough lever and I will move the earth" ???

    All good, thanks for the suggestions.

    A small correction (Just to improve your chances in trivial pursuit )

    “Give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum on which to place it, and I shall move the world.” Archimedes (Mathematician and inventor of ancient Greece, 280-211bc)

    I got mine off with a socket / 1/2 breaker bar and a 1.2 meter length of pipe. Leverage will do it, they are tight!

    one of the 12 volt wheel nut removers often works wonders on nuts that the average rattle gun wont budge.
