Hi Folks,

I seem to have done all the correct procedures but cannot loosen & remove the rear wheel spindle.
10mm Lock nut is out, wd 40'd the end threads on the right side.
Trying with a ratchet & foot long torque bar with wheel spindle removal tool but near on full body weight & nothing shifting.
Tried shocking it loose with a lump hammer on the torque bar.
I know it's left hand thread.

Anyone got any ideas please.

All the best Paul.

Hi again,

Don't worry I've done it. Heated a long socket with a blowtorch in the spindle, heat transference worked a treat.

Yeah Right.

Here's the wheel off & me breaking the bead with my ABBA bead breaker. Not a stuck spindle to be seen.
