Im having difficulty unbolting the 19mm refill bolt. Has anyone had the same problem?? If so, how the hell did you get around it?? Is this the correct way to refill the mongrol??Im guessing I'll have to get the breaker bar out!!

Sometimes it's easies to get a chisel and give the edge of the nut a hit. This will help free it.

I did my diff oil last week, only 30,000 on the clock but it was disgusting inside.
