man you wouldnt be saying that if you had a tuff one that has seen all of wonderful weather on it and is rusted as fork. Your spanner is just gonna round it off and make the job ten times worse :(

True mine came in a halfords case for spanners they are so much better. Some of us aren't pikeys you know and like to do it the proper way lol :thumb: :cool:

ok so heres a new question then might as well keep it in the topic

wd40 or this new freeze bolt release bolt sheezy? :thumb:

For me it has to be the new freeze bolt release bolt sheezy for some things as wd40 gets annoying as it runs down your spanner and greese's up your hand nicely. Well ready for your miss's when your done messing round with the car i suppose but not ideal :thumb:

[Adaz_blud]

[Hobbit]

what do u do if it already rounded :(
