Re: Help! How do I get rear wheel off - 2

[Herb <zephyr9900@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

BTW it should take less than an hour to get all the wheels off using a Fire
Wrench! (Torch)  Just expect to have to mike the holes and get new studs to
match the new hole dimensions.  Also if the concept of right & left hand
threads confuses you now is the time to convert.

Fire wrench is slang for a torch.  If you did not know this you wont know
how to use it to remove the stud anyway.  FYI what you do is concentrate the
heat on the stud till it's red hot and hit it with oxygen and literally melt
or blow the stud from inside the lug nut.  Sounds like you need to take it
to a mechanic or someone that knows what their doing!!

Guys! guys!, me and the other half loved reading all these suggestions.
She's a little skeptical about loosening the axle nut and doing the
figure 8s, but it's my personal favorite. Maybe we'll try the nut
splitter first, then the grinder wheel, then the figure 8s.
 
Remind me what the "fire wrench" is, and please explain how I would
"blow out" the stud with it.
 
Lady Driver is warming up to the notion, and trying to decide if she's
going to do em or be the "observer." She wants to know how to "be
careful" when doing the Figure 8s since the rear wheels will be a-loose.
What can I say, I am a lucky man to have a Mopar Gurrllll.
