Was it 12point? I always find them better.

Perhaps it has an outer sleeve?

Got an air gun?

Fear not - halfords have a tool for this very thing. Reverse threaded nut/bolt remover. It's a one use socket with a reverse thread in it. It cuts into the bolt then gives you enough purchase to undo it  :cool:

Never had much luck with the reverse thread ones. Worked on two lockers and that was it. :undecided:

Also need an airgun with it.

Advice is just advice,Those of us that advised you about whacking a socket over it have been in your predicament before.The whacking method worked for me as it has for most of us.So next time you ask for advise call us bellends before so i dont have to waste my time trying to help you out.  :wink:
