Just got back after driving round all day trying to get my last locking nut removed, no garages seem to want to touch it and mention the next one on!!
I removed the rears myself yesterday, (car had 2 locking nuts per alloy) front passanger wouldn't budge but mate managed them with an airgun today. drivers side front is still stuck fast and now looks a mess from being smashed to bits and then attempted welding a nut on!!
Gas bottle was running out on the welder so only half hearted attempt so thats why ended up driving around. that Snowie is now no longer markless and all this just so i can paint callipers and fit suspension myself on monday (to save money)...
Also had to buy loads more tools etc as stuff been lent out (as i not had a car to play with in 2 year) and now no one can remember me lending them out...
It would have been £90 wuid to fit the springs and callipers i could live without, now its looking like way over that with tools purchased and going to have to get the nut drilled out and alloy refurbed...
Not to mention i fitted the rear interior light other months and now my front one has gone crazy...
Starting to think its not as much fun getting your hands dirty and palying with cars... maybe i'm just getting old and mourngy
