Randy, that was pretty unlike you... Why are you presuming Valman's some sort of simpleton, he's just having difficulty with what can be a fiddly job, and it's a fair assumption that the bolt's over tight if it can't be removed reasonably easily. Why the attitude? I'm a pretty competent DIY mechanic now, but if I came across an overtorqued nut that I knew my dealer had touched last, I'd take it to him and tell him to fix it. It's the logical response- if it's been overtorqued and damaged, he can't blame me, whereas if I damage the bolt trying to remove it he's got an excuse.
