Why do you need the hub not off to change the brakes?


Anyway car on the ground, chock all 4 wheels, handbrake on, in gear and a very long breaker bar (or extend it with a scaffold pole.)

Also to agree with Dum. Don't see how the wheel could spin that far of it was in gear and on the ground.

Nah I only have a 36mm too but I'm feeling a bit naughty now with the amount of people who have a 35mm so may go out and get one.

I can't believe your gun does hub nuts, 90% of the time mine won't touch them.
