Yeah they're 17mm. But I can't remove them. Used PB blaster but not better.

How big of a ratchet are you using? Get a 1/2 inch ratchet with a breaker bar.

Always buying stock wheels... PM me if interested in selling.

I don't have a breaker bar but I'll try my 1/2" lug wrench.

Loosen the bolt if you can, then get a breaker bar between the joint and mount. Apply mallet.


Yeah I have a mallet. I'll try a longer bar or wrench.

Or..just don't remove it there.

Simply mark where the bolt is on the rod with some whiteout, then spin the guy off the rod. Screw taking that point off, its a pain. I always just break the hub loose with the 3 bolts on the bottom, axle removal of course. Then spin it off.

Also, please get some zipties, or metal line to hang that caliper up to the spring. I see it sitting on the box, but you may hit the box, and have the bugger drop busting the break line.


Thanks for teaching me about these.
