Don't understand that. How would I slide the nut back & forth on the tubing when it is still stuck in place?
I post here just to vent some of the frustration of dealing with old cars that are driven in salt. And get some moral support
Not my first rodeo. Been through this many times on my old cars. But these days I seem to have forgotten things I learned along the way
This PM, I removed caliper, dust shield and disk/hub on the other side so taking a break! Probably just clean and paint the dust shield and parts of suspension rest of weekend. Disks/hubs can soak until Monday! Then they get HEAT!
