Well, I had it on three lugs which were barely threaded in to the hub. Drove it up and down my drive and turned the wheel. Yep still stuck. I should add that I am not able to drive the car around the block as the bigger issue is that I am trying to get to is to remove the engine. I suspect I have a cracked piston if not two as it smokes out the dipstick tube. So, now I am thinking that I will remove the hub by the lower ball joint and hopefully I can remove the wheel and hub together from the strut. It looks possible. Has anyone ever done this?
