Ah, worked it out. So there you can see how I used the g clamp, and it worked perfectly! The pressure stopped the tread turning, and there was room to get the spanner on the nut. The track rod end is still serviceable. Result!
However, that's the end of the good news.
The 2 bolts holding the hub carrier to the strut are totally solid, and I can't get them off in a month if Sunday's. Now you can all shout about heat/grinders etc, but I just don't have the equipment.
As always, answers from the collective appreciated!
