    In the process of converting to chain drive. Trans nut is giving me issues. Ive had an electric snap on impact driver on it, breaker bar with metre cheat bar. Nothing. The fuckin thing wont budge. Im thinking pneumatic rattle gun will pop the slut? THOUGHTS PLEASE!!!

    Are you using a locking tool.. Or are you using the brake and gears to lock things down ??

    Breaker bar, put some wood against it and wack it with a hammer. Sometimes the shock will loosen it. And mark the nut with a permanent marker, so you can see if it's moving, even slightly.

    Use a dremel to cut of the nut

    cut it in two halves they are loctited on, need heat to soften the Loctite but this puts the seal at risk, I just cut them straight of now
