You'll need a pretty decent gun & compressor, better off getting it higher off the ground and use a decent length of tube/pry bar on it, maybe he used loctite too.

Hey mate,

I have a compressor & rattle gun. its not the best but you are welcome to try it if you like? I am in Eden Hill, just next to Bassendean. To be honest though, Tom is probably correct in what he is saying. Get a long breaker bar, or a longer tube / bar to go over the wrench handle and use a bit more leverage force. Sometimes a good couple of whacks on the end of the stud can help also.

PM me if you want to come and grab it, but it is only a cheap compressor & rattle gun.

Hi gents,
Appreciate the feedback..
Ive got it up on stands at the moment, next option is to take it to a hoist, but while all the other shyzzer is being replaced, be nice to finish these off.. My other concern is rounding off the heads, I had 2 goes today before I stopped myself, and it already looks a little suss.. Tried the old tap tap with a hammer and some crc lubrication before second go...

Cheers.

Ashley

Yeah thats a last resort when she goes into Mao's in coming weeks.
Its a track car, so needs a trailer to get mobile, too much dicking around at this stage..
trying to have what I thought were going to be "easy little jobs" done while I wait for Cage to be finished and then before Mao gets at it..

Cheers though.

I'm in Middle Swan and have a compressor and rattle gun that you're more than welcome to borrow. However, like Tom said, you'll get more torque with a socket and breaker bar than a rattle gun (well, my cheap rattle gun at least).
Still, the offer's there.
