If you leave the nut threaded on a few turns, when the wheel comes off the splines/taper it won't crush your sternum.

That's how smart people do it.

actually i think they were 10mm bolts holding the horn button on, but yeah. a couple basic tools which you can buy for $15 at wally world.

you can leave the tool kit in the car and it might even save your *** one day and you will be thankful.

I have a weekend to do this so I will go do this during the next couple days as to appease the haters on the forum. I intend to fix this car to be operable to the basic standards and then some if able but time and money is a factor. So please relax with the flame comments geez. I guess i shouldn't say that my window isnt working either or else i might get burnt up by the flamers as well

the aim was for you to see that people were trying to help you out, there's nothing worse than spending your free time trying to help someone to only have it be disregarded.

It wasnt going to be disregarded but I had to clear it before I was able to do anything. On payday I am going to get a tool set from walmart and ill be able to do this alot more often when needed. I figured since I work in a motor pool i wouldnt need to buy tools but I guess i was wrong if I want to do it at my own leisure
