Default Gonna install Goldlines, but...

I wanna know how hard that "big nut" is to get out?

How hard is it exactly to get it out w/ hand tools?

What kind of time saving are we talking about here exactly w/ an air tool?

Thanks

Easy enough to do.. just don't over tighten it putting it back on.

Also, watch the drivers side half shaft, if you push down too far to get the strut out it can fall out of the tranny and it a pita to get back in (we actually ripped a boot on an install a couple weekends ago). Don't be afraid though.. Just a word to warn, since I haven't read anyone else having this problem.

"Also, watch the drivers side half shaft, if you push down too far to get the AXLE out it can fall out of the tranny."

Also I recomend having someone with an airgun remove the nut on the top of the strut assembly, and everything else can be down by hand. But I highly recomend having that nut removed by an air gun.
