Or use an empi whack tool with a breaker bar. &nbsp;Sammie is right about the 
front spindle nuts too.

I've had to use heat in extreme cases to get castleated buts off rear axles 
even breaking them off sometimes. &nbsp;

I now put antiseize on the threads before reassembly

Chuck is bringing his that is one less thing I've got to remember for the 
show.&nbsp; Let me know.

But, anyone with a bus and bugs needs at least 4 things in their tool 
arsenal:&nbsp; An air compressor, an air impact tool, a 36mm air socket, and a 
46mm air socket.

Thanks Chuck.&nbsp; I've been beating on my 15" cresent wrench and it hasn't 
even budged.&nbsp; By the way, is it a LH or RH thread?&nbsp; Lefty loosey, 
righty tighty or am I doing a good job of tightening it?
