Yup... Sierra Rear Hub Nuts can be a real pain to undo... But with this, and a 9ft pole, it came undone with ease. Mind you the Socket set bar complained a bit

Yeah, mine were real bas***ds! Problem was, i didnt know about the left hand thread and ripped the poo outta it. Fixed now tho

Carefully inspect that tiny bit of thread protruding from the nut, you can see which hand it is, and act acordingly.

Also make sure you put them on the right sides, when you build the car, as they could Both come undone if you dont!.

When i was refiting my sierra rears i was told to remember that i should allways tighten towards the front of the car,so near side is left hand thread.
