The 12 point made moving the socket one point clockwise/ counter clockwise easy... a 6 point moves the whole socket 1/6th of the nut . Like I had said...if you can find a 46MM socket wrench , cut the window, use an 18MM wrench to hold the cam and use a breaker bar if you want, that's perfect...I couldn't find the 46MM. Before I used the impact I tried the breaker bar. I only used the impact to break the nut loose. two very short hits and the nut moved about 1/2 inch, enough to make removal with regular tools. The wrench is 3/4 drive so a torque wrench will fit like any other socket. I don't intend to impact it on to torque spec. But I do thank you for the idea. Just kidding.
