Pull a lawso did you?

Obviously not..

Lawso doesnt use his brakes

I've already talked to dstocks and he's got nothing available atm.

What about Taz?

What's the actual issue with the caliper?
Jammed handbrake lever, piston seal stuffed...?

Obviously not..

Lawso doesnt use his brakes

doesn't use his brakes now as it cost him a rotor, caliper and set of pads last time.

[Taz]

What about Taz?

Whats this? Someone actually knows I also stock quite a few parts myself!?

He already msg'ed me, unfortunately i have a set, but theyre still stuck on Maverick until i have the time and money to buy a welder to get the locknuts off

Just give sahin a couple of beers to undo it

[Taz]

a) Sahin doesnt drink beer
b) its not a case of strength to get it off, the locknuts are fucked, as well as being the softest metal ive ever seen. A specialist reverse tapered emergency locknut remover was useless and did nothing on it
Only real option left is to weld a socket on there - got the spare socket, just waiting for an ALDI special welder

Lol atcruisers!
And Taz! I got one of those locknuts off with a f**king socket bashed on and a 1/2 drive socket wrench with no breaker bar of any kind and no WD lol if you didn't strip the nuts so bad with your locknuts removal tool I could have gotten them off for you! Lmao

[Taz]

I tried everything mate, dead set. You even came round when me and wagonist tried drilling that hub out. You got lucky on one of them...

[Sahin]

Lol it was the first and only one I tried!...

The piston seal was completely shot, as well as the piston boot. I managed to get the snapped off bolt out, sanded the rust off the piston and now I just have to go down to auto spares for replacements

Is this leading to the OP getting his caliper, or do you 2 want a room with a lock nut set?

[Daniel2019]

Just a long, thick breaker bar should be plenty for them

Again, ill state its not a matter of simply hulking it off. The metal is too soft and the "locking" part of it is simply a few small semi circle ridges, to which nothing can grip. I have tried a specialist removal tool and all it did was shear off a nice spiral piece of metal off the locknut...
Ill gladly bet anyone $100 they cannot simply remove them without resorting to something like welding a socket on...any takers?

I think he meant putting the breaker bar somewhere near your butt?
