Thanks for the info. I've had the nuts off once and know about the L and R threads. The RF spindle actually has left-handed threads too.

I will hold off on the Loctite since it doesn't seem to be used for this job.

I took the axle nuts off with the Milwaukee impact with no problem the first time. I was thinking I could use the impact first and then go back at it with my 600lb torque wrench. I'm not as strong as I used to be so hopefully the 4ft wrench will give me enough leverage.

I have a fixture setup using the original hubs. Hoping to put the wheel studs thru it and tighten the lug nuts the back side. Just hoping the vice will hold everything.

Thanks,

John
