The B***dy downpipe nuts
#7
Tried again today, this time on ramps to allow my rather chunky 60 year old frame to wriggle more. baptised the lot with WD40 and actually got one off, but not the one with the steering uj heat shield in the way, my wrists are too thick and although the nut and bolt are loose on the spring the nut appears seized, not enough angle to get a 10mm ring on and a small open ender slips, of course the downpipe hanging off the stud  is really helping...not 
I can hardly see the top of the nut from above...down the back of the TMIC, I was under there for over an hour for one lousy nut!

Are the nuts washers springs cups and bolts standard for all pugs with the XUD9TE? I might have to snap it!
