mr tickle Member Last Online: Today 10:13 Join Date: May 2010 Location: Cardiff	I had the same issue with 2 of mine. It was very much a botch job and got them off ok: I parked the car close enough to a wall so that the breaker bar (with short extension and socket) when on the bolt was about 3 inches away. I then used a length of wood as a lever between the wall and socket to apply lots of force to push the socket inwards towards the wheel. of course you will need 2 people to do this one to adjust the lever the other to undo. it worked for me and then I replaced with new bolts. Good luck. __________________ *Current Volvo:* XC90 D5 2014 120K miles.
