Spinners from Hell
Quote:
Not to beat a dead horse (so to speak) but there was an old thread in the earlier days of this site in which a member recanted his tales of woe about trying to beat his spinners off with a lead hammer. He included pics of the hammer in its terminal state and it wasn't recognizable as a tool.

Yup... Chopper.. that was me:

I stand by the fact that very little torque need be applied to the spinner. The pins are taking the load, not the face of the wheel hub.
Anti-sieze compound will resolve any spalling issues with the aluminum on aluminum. I replace my bent spinner with another aluminum one considering the much higher price of retro-fitting all four with stainless. So far... super good.
That was a nice hammer, eh?
