[QUOTE="Mechanoid, post: 637067, member: 13076"] Can I just say, Don't use a slugger to loosen the nuts! Every time you belt the slugger, it transmits a lot of shock force into the transmission via the drive shafts potentially damaging the diff/gearbox bearings. Buy a cheap 3/4" drive breaker bar and 46mm socket. Before removing the nuts, mark the position of the nut and the end of the drive shaft. That way you don't need to use a torque wrench to tighten it back up. You can just tighten back to the mark. This assuming you are using the same hubs and don't mix up your nuts! (Oooer missus!)
