    The cam bolt is standard thread, right? I'm giving this thing the beans with a breaker bar, 1" drive impact socket, and about 4 feet of cheater bar, and it won't move.

    Thing is being a real mother****er sandwich right now.

    Yup. Turn counter-clockwise to remove. You're going to have to set your purse down to loosen it.

    I wouldn't want to damage the fine leather by sitting it on all those greasy car parts that are all over the place.
