So, I have this issue... Van is 2015 plate, one side came out easy peasy, other side ffs! Can't get it to budge... Lump hammer on an ally block and still won't move. I've put nut back on backwards now, but what can I do to hit it hard without damaging anything?

Funnily enough my techy did my pass and discs Thursday gave me back the car with a bandage on his hand. It wasn’t there when I left the vehicle....
He didn’t make many nice things to say about doing the discs and pads!!!
To be fair the discs lasted 150,000 miles

I did mine recently, have you undone the torque bolts before hitting the drive shaft. i used a 40lb sledge and shifted it 1st hit. I think i tired with a smaller hammer it’s it wasent giving me a result
