Hi all Just getting around to changing my front wheel hub (waiting on the nice weather lol) but have hit a snag at the first hurdle lol trying to get the hub nut off, but the damn thing wont move at all tried heating it till it was glowing and then standing on the breaker bar and still wont move, the option im looking at now is cutting it off but cant find any where that sell replacement nut!!! So any clues who stocks these castle nuts??? plus what socket size is this nut ment to be 30mm wont fit and 32mm is a bit loose do i take it's a 31mm????

Many thanks Jay

Yeah got it off in the end used a nut splitter
and replaced, for some reason the others posts aren't here mate cause I ended up starting a new thread about the drive shaft split, had to cut the cv joint and replace it but all back together now and no noise at the front so that hub I got off ya worked a treat bud, only thing now is the back one is making a noise the front one was masking the back noise, ha ha never ends does it
