Removing rear calipers
#10
Because the rears being ally and the unions steel I think the they've corroded together.

I've been trying with a brake union spanner or flare nut spanner with mole grips on that to stop the ends bending out with the shock tactic. Even with a small mallet then a small hammer.

Do you know if there are any other special tools available to do the job?

I could do with one of them spanners that act on the flat of the nut not on the corners but open on the one end like the flare nut spanner.
