i was trying to take off my wheel spacers today and i took off all the nuts but the thing wouldnt budge. I guess its from all the rust and build up but does anyone know what i can do to get this thing off my hub. thanks

 

Either grab and flat head an tap the edges with it with a hammer or with the hammer hit the top middle and sides of the spacers. Once off bush hub and and some anti-seize to center bore that is where it normally gets sticks to.

 

i already tried that with wd40, that thing does not budge at all...

 

Gonna have to just keep trying... I'm going to assume you over torqued your lugs and it's squished the metal.

What kind of spacer are these?

 

make sure you clean the studs off since you sprayed WD40, Only reason I say this is because they will not torque down properly because they will keep slipping. Thats why I didn't mention any lubricate.

 

h&r's and i torqued it to 80 or 85, i only had them on for half a year. Im not sure how it got all seized up. i got the rear set off because i worked off the hole in the hub but still cant get the front set to move..

 

use a screw driver and a hammer like a chisel

 

If you didn't use anti seize gel this might be your problem.

Give this a go, and good luck!

 

^fyi op was able to get all the lug nuts off

 

Torch & hammer

Use a real lubricant, WD40 is a water displacement chemical

 

i finally got it off. took it to the shop. they had a machine that pulled it right out. took 5 minutes lmao compared to the few hours i tried hammering at it

 

to add on top of the few hours i spent aimlessly hammering it, i got a summons for working on my car outside my house. **** was ridiculous.

 

Only in Ny eh?

Glad you got it sorted man, next time remember some anti seize!!!

 

How should anti seize be applied?
