    LOL.....Im well aware of this, but anything over 8 axles in that area is headache in itself, but atleast you dont need a "emissions compliant" truck to run there.

    The difference is I like running California and I dont even mind sneaking in and sneaking out, I just think the regulations are ridiculous. When a state dictates what kinda truck you're allowed to own, that's just sad.

    Thanks man! I was surprised how well it came out doing it by hand. Little by little I will work my way back.

    First, are you trying to turn it the right way? It might be reverse threaded, and instructions have a bad habit of not instructing on that crucial detail when applicable.

    If that's not the problem, I would break out my 36" 1/2" drive breaker bar which usually does the trick. If you don't have one, you can put two wrenches together to get more torque.

    I think what you got made there will work. Maybe put a impact on it with low power and see if it will rattle it loose.

    If that don't work I think your idea of welding a larger nut will be fine, just have a wet towel ready to cool it down. Good luck

    Well, the jam nut is right hand thread so I think the washer thing would have to be as well. Hopefully my homemade socket will do the trick. I have plenty of breaker bar if the socket will hold up.
