I want to grease my front wheel bearings, I have the proper socket for the large nut to remove it, but it does not seem to move, seems there is a small indention keeping the large nut from moving, is it a stop to prevent the large nut from moving? How can I remove this large nut and get to the bearing. Thanks, Richard
