I bought a manual torque multiplier for wheel nuts like that, well worth the £50 off eBay and they come with sockets once used a few times it’s paid for by the saved labour!!

Yes I do have one for the HGV, BUT I didn't have a nut that size typically!!

As a tyre fitter for over 20 years I get where you're coming from with bald tyres you will pick up any crap on the road it's like the tyres become a magnet for it

Hi boss. Whats the sore with tire balancer please ? Do you have to calibrate it few times per day, before every customer ? Does it not have to be on perfectly leveled surface for balancing? Wonder if adding adjustable legs to the balancer and leveling balancer with spirit level before each customer would sort it all out.

that iveco wheel nut was way too tight!! I had the same problem with a smiley transit after breaking my 3/4 breaker bar I brought a lorry 2 piece wheel brace that fitted and that did the job!! a 1 inch thick shaft I can jump up and down on!!😂🤣 heating them up always helps expand the nut but have to be careful!! great job love these videos.

We have had numerous ivecos all the same every time, I actually have another video on this channel of breaking a breaker bar on an Iveco on the m6 some time ago! , Yeah that method sounds like a good idea to! Anything to get the JOB DONE! Thanks for the watch!

Why didn't you use the impact on the Iveco with the seized nut? Just curious, not saying that is how it should be done.
@GDBRescueandrecovery3 жыл бұрын
I would of done but the impact wouldn't have enough umph to get them off, the NEW 1 inch impact gun Milwaukee sell probably would of though! Thanks for the watch!

the problem with that is its far too easy to get said person taking the huff and slating your business all over social media, The best thing you can do is advise and leave it at that. As shit as it is with these gits running around with bald tyres.
