| hay guys, ive decided to furb up my splits, they are a two piece. ive got the tyres off, tried to undo the bolts but they r sooo dam tight, they have allen key fitment on the front and a 13mm nut on the backs. i cnt get a ratchet on the nuts coz they r so close to the outter. ne advice would be a help, i thought there was a page on this on edition but cnt seem to find it? cheers, steph  |

| Don't mean to insult you by stating the obvious, but have you tried an extension bar on the ratchet? Or is it the socket that's too big to fit? If so you can get a deep socket which should have slimmer sides and might be a better fit? Like zeeeees |
