Wise ones, I humbly throw myself at your mercy!
I cannot for love, money or foul language get the nut on the passenger side tie rod to let go.
I have tried self penetrating oil, a fair bit of heat (which makes me nervous about cooking the rack), attempts at turning it both ways, but nothing.
I am millimetres from cutting it off with a small disc cutter but before I do, what advice / experiences are you able to offer me please?
Is the left side supposed to be a reverse thread? I read somewhere that on the early S30s the threads were handed but on the later cars the threads were normal on both sides.
Please help my car get off the driveway this year!! [emoji15]
