So like I said, after beating on the nut with a tinker toy k mart breaker bar like a farmer for a while, you took the car to a guy with a 1/2 inch gun and he took the nuts off in 2 seconds. But you didn't tell him to just leave them semi loose, so he put the new nuts on and you drove away. And now your butthurt that he put the new nuts on and staked them. What are you even trying to do?

That's funny. I gave you the idea to take it to a guy with the right tools who took the nuts off in 5 seconds. You say you are sick of your truck, and its a pain in the *** and your going to rant about it, but i think the main problem with your truck is that your an *** hole.

Who said anything taking 2 seconds to take off the nuts, munch?
He had to heat it, then "persuaded" it, then impacted with a monster air wrench.
The only thing that would make me butt hurt is if I worked at a bullsh!t shop like this then went around telling people I was a Master Rover Tech:

Actually, I own that bullsh!t 4 bay 4 lift 50 parking spot business. That picture is one corner of my shop. I work on mainly land rovers, and German cars. Where do you work? Wallmart? I have been working on land rovers since 2001. I was a master rover tech in 2006. I have forgotten more about your truck than you will ever know about your truck. I have never had a problem getting an axle nut off ever. not once. The only thing he "heated" was his coffee, and he "persuaded" more money out of your wallet. Then he took off both axle nuts in 5 seconds. BTW what are you doing, that you need to take the axle nuts off? ABS sensor? Hub?
i understand where you are coming from. but it aint worth it.

Dear munch;
In case you haven't noticed this is a Enthusiast/DIY forum for Rovers NOT a professional mechanics forum. If you find the discussions here too sophomoric or pedestrian for your tastes may I suggest that you go to a pro forum where your, ahem, knowledge will be welcomed. And actually he didn't charge me anything, great guy.
By the way I work in IT and make more money than you can dream about (without breaking my back). This is a H O B B Y, understand?
I'll sum it up for you so that even a Jersey boy like you can understand. I can do what you do, YOU cannot do what I do.
