If the spring doesn't pop it, just stand on the rotor. Never fails.

Will be using the above tool shortly.

Redoing the front end of the 91 Sedan after snapping a knuckle Monday.

That's how I do mine

Crapsman ftw. It's crazy how easy it is, and how perfectly sized a craftsman socket wrench is for that. It goes next to the ball joint's rubber, between the lca and knuckle if anyone missed that.


One guy I know who works at a rather prestigeous Honda outfit has used a BFH for years. He wails on the side of the LCA, albeit he's bigger than spiker. It deforms the hole just enough to unstick the 2 metal parts. Apparently it's never caused an issue, besides missing a handful of times and destroying other parts... :P
