Re: Tight bolt to steering unit

If the hose is blown, its trash anyway. Get it out of the way.

Use an imp (mini tubing cutter) and crop the steel tubing as close to the fitting nut as possible. If you can't spin even a mini cutter, use a hacksaw blade or sawzall.

Then, with no tube sticking out of the fitting to deal with, the nut can be grabbed with a box end wrench or 6-point socket.
