Some serious swearing took place yesterday. I tried a breaker bar on the nut, but that was worthless (I didn't expect it to work but was hoping). I have a piece of shit impact wrench that is just shy of worthless so I ran to Sears and picked up a new one. Nice... 710 ft/lbs of torque. It twisted that nut off like butter.
The flange was was easy enough with a small puller.
Now I am dealing with a retainer holding the seal. It's just pushed in like the seal but you can't get a remover behind it. I was able to loosen it with a 14 in pipe wrench I got for a homeowner type project a while ago. I think I need to go get a big ass channel lock to take it all the way off.
