thxs man, well i tried my impact and it didn't work, either its not the right size( not completely snug) or becuz i oly have 12point sockets that size. So im going to try the next size up and down, if they don't work im going to have to got buy a 6point 54mm. But have no fear my dad works for the city and gets wholesale and even 30% off wholesale on some companies. So i get tools cheap. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png



this nut isn't reversed threaded by any chance?

Use a 6 point socket. That's what I use, and it always works.

I'm 99% sure the nut isn't reverse threaded.



Good Luck,

You're right. It's a regular nut: Righty tighty, lefty loosey. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

I once mistakenly had my impact gun on forward while trying to remove the nut. :wow:
