The good ole days, I remember my grandmother saving them.

Shit Head Stamps. Yea, I remember the damn things. Hell, I invented the damn things just had to kill a bunch of Chinese to make the glue. Had to travel 100 miles to find a store to get ripped off on. How do you think I paid for college??

My mother saved these, but was horribly disorganized & mostly tossed them in a drawer.
Then pops decided we'd go camping for vacations and bought a tent & it was up to mom to get the rest of the gear (Coleman stove, lamp etc. etc.) via greenstamp redemption. She made the 3 of us sit there and stick the damn stamps in the books as the Greenstamp place would not take them 'loose'.

My folks got me a decent sleeping bag and the world’s worst baseball glove with them.

I love how we stay on topic in this forum.

The heat will go to the least restant, so like said before, all bolts tight cause you want the heat to tranfer to the one you want.

It’s a lug bolt not a lug nut, so you want to heat and expand the hub, not the bolt you’re trying to get off. That’s why you heat it from behind and don’t fuck up the wheel. Heat would love to enter the clear coat on those wheels before it heats the bolt. Haha.

Easy out it.

Yeah, a broken easy out in a stuck bolt always makes it more interesting.

The extractor is working really well for gripping the stripped bolt head, however even the 1/2 impact gun we are using won’t budge this thing.

My next concern is this thing is cross threaded and he’s going to be screwed when it’s removed.

Use a big ass bar.

Working on it. Part of the problem is we really need a deep well extractor set and the one he bought is not. So we need an adapter and we have snapped 2 of the adapters so far haha.

I do understand that you want to take baby steps here, but when you're ready for more manly stuff...I have a 1-inch hydraulic impact good for 2,500 ft.-lbs.

Haha trust me, if it was in my garage it’s be off by now, but I’m 450 miles from home and he has limited tools.

Why does the wheel have to come off anyway?
You can change a tire with the wheel still on the vehicle.
