better do them with the complete rack out as they have a red stuff tread lock on tread and you need a big spanner I think i used 32mm one (corsa b ones) better if you heat up a bit the tread as would not come out easily

jesus christ I was hoping to leave the rack where it is, sounds a bit of a mission. Cheers for the help mate, ill have to invest in some new spanners today
