I have not seen that. I got till Tuesday to figure something out before I take it to the shop. Could you show me a link of some sort? Would a spare tire work haha.

Right on. Sadly I can't even break the nut loose. I've thrown it into a vice and everything. I'm a little dude haha. About 150lbs but when I was trying to break it loose with a pipe wrench I was doing harm then good. I fear I'm going to end up rounding the edges of the nut since it's a soft metal. If I do that I'll end up with another problem on my hands. My clutch has never been opened so this is factory tight. May just take the clutch itself and see if a shop will break it loose for me.

It's usually just the pressure from the spring holding it tight, so compressing it down with the tire worked for me just fine on a couple different clutches, without pre loosening on the vice. Probably it's like that odd flywheel that just won't pop  That reminds me I need to keep at least 1 of the scrap car wheels in the clean up pile from my garage demolition...I'm a little girl, 115, LOL. Thanks for the video Brent. I couldn't find it  |

Well now I feel weak :laugh: This thing has got me beat though I'll admit it. With a broken middle finger it doesn't make the task any easier either. Thanks for the help though. Kudos for giving me some how to's I had never seen.

Perhaps borrow a breaker bar and 28mm socket from a friend or go play Santa at a pawn shop. |

I think that's a typo above, should be 38mm socket unless the Zuma is diff than the other minarelli 2Ts. A shop would probably do that super cheap too if you take that and ask for them just to remove the nut.
