^um, that is either graphic or I am missing something....


Oh and on a side note, if suicide is your way to go, nail gun won't do the job, it won't hit your primitive part of your brain (the part the keeps you in veg state).

So why are we talking about fail here?

Can't get the front pulley bolt out. Jeefs impact is not torquey enough. I've volunteered a couple of my larger breaker bars,
18" 3/4" drive and a 24" 1/2" drive. And my Impact. Hopefully it will come apart tomorrow.

Use a flametorch!
I spent hours trying to remove one once with a big impact gun\compressor combo to no avail. Heat it up and it will come off

They are put on with 500 ft/lbs of torque.
They've been torched, frozen and smacked around.
I'm off to Harbor Freight in a few moments. Back in the garage in a few hours.
