Default Need a spinner vendor

First off you guys are great! I asked for advice on removing spinners and the responses were both amusing and sarcastic.
I like that.
Great ideas and I’ve tried most of them.
Here is a rundown that I hope you find enlightening:
Started with my dead blow hammer as I didn’t have a clue what I was doing.

Moved onto the 9-11 tool and a lead hammer.
Didn’t work.
That got the front off, but not the back.
Purchased the large aluminum tool and a breaker bar.
Didn’t work.
Added 6’ of pipe to the breaker bar.
Didn’t work.
Got a 1/2” impact wrench.
Didn’t work.

I should mention that I have been marinating the spinner in everything from Kroil oil to ATF and acetone.

Got a torque multiplier.
Didn’t work.
Had a friend bring over his 1” impact wrench.
Didn’t work.

And before you ask I’m sure I’m spinning them in the correct direction.

Cooled the spindle with dry ice and heated the spinner.
Didn’t work.

It was suggested that I take the yard that works on truck tires and tell them “I’ll bet you $100 you can’t get those spinners off”!

Anyway by now you can hopefully see why I’m at the stage where I want to cut them off.

When I figure out how to upload photos I’ll pass the along.

Looking forward to more creative suggestions.

Dave
