Nothing a little elbow grease cant help. It just take some DW-40. I took mine off with that and lots of strength.

That's all you can really do unless you have air tools. I'd be down to help you out but you live like an hour away. Try more WD40. Goodluck!

^exactly, after that putting it back on with basic hand tools will be easy but if you can find a pipe that will fit over the wrench/ratchet then you can use that for leverage. Chris you don't need air or power tools for it, you can just hang on the wrench/ratchet and use your body weight and pray they break loose haha

use penetrating grease that will help alot. and definetly a breaker bar is best and get the car high enough to get leverage.

Word! Cat has volunteered again. Roll out to Rialto to help Marvin out!

Marvin, call Chris and see if you can use his air tools when you get your coilover wrenches. He wouldnt mind man.

^^^Much better suggestion, that's actually what I did. I just replied quick and didn't really think it through.

I'm down to help with coilovers also, not a problem. If you need a hand just Pm me. I'm on here pretty often.
