 ;)Leon,from my experiance with removing HR hubs from the discs i tryed everything,but had no luck!!until someone told me that i should be untightening them using an impact driver,so i bought one,and sure enough they all came loose with a bit of friendly beating,and i also used the same method to reinstall them making sure that they were tight as possible!!!worked for me!!!cheers jamie ;)

I agree with Jamie they do work with little effort and a bit of lube.I have one and used it on some stuborn wagon bits. The bits (Bolts /Nuts ) give in to a little persuasion.

Cheers Rusty
