trying to get hub off

[quadwanter]

I cannot get this right rear hub off! These are standard threads right?

Its that center nut i cant get loose. I've tried a 4 foot long tube over the rachet handle for more leverage and even that wont make it budge....whats going on?

Ya its standard threads.

I had the same problem. I thinks its a 1 1/16" socket. Try heating the nut up with a torch, it helps to break it loose. It might sound stupid but try to tighten the nut first then go backwards, it might help break it loose!!

If you can get your hands on an impact, try using it. The nuts can be tight.

hey Mymastifftucker gave some good advice.....heat it up with a torch if ya got it for about 30 seconds then start turnin. But i just gotta ask......did you take the cotter pin out? And an impact gun will work wonders..

yea Mapp gas works wonders. I used to us propane then tried the mapp and it heats so much hotter and so much quicker.
