Finally doing the LS400 caliper upgrade and before I can even star the fun part my caliper bolts wont budge
I've tried my homeade torque bar
Then I pulled out my torque wrench (250lbs max) and it still wouldn't budge
tried for over an hour then gave up
What should I try next?

Any advise will be helpful

 

You turning the right way? (hey it happens) I was having the same problem yesterday, I took a 25lb sledge to the ratchet; just dont do what I did and take your thumb with it I crushed my thumb... anyways, yea. Also use some liquid wrench and/or WD40.

 

heat it up, then PB blast it?

 

dont use your torque wrench to open nuts/bolts. it screws it up.
like they said, use pb blaster/liquid wrench/a torch

 

go get a real long pipe

 

champstar sorry if im bothering ur thread. are you doing the LS400 rear caliper upgrade. what exactly is needed to do the upgrade. Thanks so much for the help.

 

nope just the fronts

finally got it loose with some PB blaster a wrench and a sledge hammer

 

great job on that. i am trying to do the ls400 rear caliper and wondering the parts i would need to get it done beside the caliper on my 98 GS300.
