Lead Hammer vs Dead Blow

[twobjshelbys]

Note that the use of force (and forceful tools) is only necessary IF proper care wasn't taken when the spinner was installed. That proper care is a small dab of anti-seize on the mating surface of the spinner to the wheel. If you do that you won't need more than a few whacks of the lead mallet to remove them... And if you do, you're tightening them too much.

Also remember that the spinners are directional - don't confuse stuck with going the wrong direction.
