Split block halves problems!
Hey there, i tried to take appart my EJ257 block halves today but i couldent manage to get the bolts out (none of them?)
My normal sockets dident fit as the bolts in the block is with 12 "teeths"
so i welded a Socket spanner (movable one)
One of these
So i welded it so it became totaly solid and unmoveable in the ends.
and i welded a socket in the other end of it so i could fit one of these
I guess they are aswell called socket spanner :P
But i couldent manage to get the bolts to move at all so i tried the impact wrench but it couldent get the bolts to move eihter?
am i doing anything wrong?
Sorry for my bad english

I use a 3/4" 12mm 12 sided socket and extension but 2 of the bolts you might need to use 1/2" 12mm 12 sided socket dependin on brand of tools.
Cheap tools will only cause heart ache
