did you look at the sockets?

they're hollow

you can put your allen key thru the middle of this and hold it with pliers or something.. i dunno

that or get an impact gun :)

oh ive already lost some blood lol
uhh idk maybe i'm turning it wrong?
i feel like putting the front back together and just taking it to someone, i'm frustrated

it turns the normal way. Right to tighten, left to loosen.

You have to give it some effort, maybe yours is stuck.

Spray it with WD40 and walk away from it for 10 minutes.

Mine took half the skin off my hand I was so cut up from it.
