| Right so as some of you may know i started to build my 2 piece splits up the other day without realising that some of the nuts were ali. clearly they threaded. anyone got any ideas of how to get them off without damaging the bolts? i cant just drill or cut it out as i only have the exact amount of wheel bolts. cheers | |

| you can buy nut splitters reasonably cheap, but i had never used one so can't promise they wont damage the bolt although im 90% sure it won't. | |
