im trying to add new coilovers to my car and i couldnt get the lower fork arm nut off... its like stuck or something.. i tried using wd-40 but that wasnt much help .. does anyone know any solution to take this nut off?
riding with one coilover and the other one stock is going to look funny on my car

thanks

 

are you having trouble taking the nut off?
have you used a breaker bar? know what a breaker bar is?

PB Blaster is an excellent penetrant. WD-40 is not.

is the bolt just stuck in there? can it rotate? can you hit it out with a hammer?

what have you tried?

 

i've tried hitting it out with a hammer already.. not much of a difference.. maybe i'll go buy pb blaster tomorrow
can i just rent one of those power gun at autozone? .. just liek how you can rent a spring compressor?

 

breaker bar, 6 point socket, put some penetrating lube and let it sit, spray some every 5 min. is it rusted on the threads or the hole?

or

use a 3/8 and position it soo u can slide a mini floor jack to jack it up.


edit:
dont use power tools it might stripe the threads. its not torque that much, so dont over do it when tighting. friend of mines snaped the bolt.

hope that helps

 

does anyone know where i can rent one of those power tool to get this nut off!!
i tried using penetrating lube and it doesnt seem to work .. someone must of tighten it really hard when i got my brakes checked...

 

do you know what a breaker bar is? have you tried one? with a 4' extension???

 

you shouldnt need air tools
