it's a 41mm socket you need
and some big ass bit of scafold pole to undo it
and even then, sometimes it won't come undone
make sure you have a steelie you can put on the car to hold it all in place as it's a bit more than just diffiult to get it done when it's off the car (350 lb/ft on the torque wench and i was lifting my old man who was standing on the wishbone
