Ditch the WD40. There is a product that is like WD40 that also eats at rust when you spray it on. Unfortuanatly I can't recall the name sorry, but it worked wonders on a 41' rust bucket Ford tear down.

Re: (jax si)
i was thinkin about picking up a cordless impact.... i was wondering do these cordless impact wrenches have interchangable tips... i hardly use 1/2 in drives except for on the bigger bolts, and i always use 3/8in so it would be nice to have something that has interchangable tips.

just take a breaker bar, man up, and do it. there are a lot of us that have done far more than that without air tools, and without problems.

Re: HOW TO REMOVE SPINDLE (IHateJDM)
you can get adapters for 1/2in -3/8in. you don't necessarily need to have an impact ... but i go by the saying "work smarter, not harder." besides if you have and air impact at home, most of those are 1/2in drive , and you can the same sockets when you're not at home. ... just an idea though... exercise is always good for you

3/8 or 1/2 breaker bar and a 2 foot steel pipe from home depot. I keep a 1 foot pipe around to add extra leverage to my ratchets, and I have a 5 foot pipe for breaking spindle nuts.
