there are jam nuts there, see that? those are first. off.
make sure no left hand threads there, seen on some cars, but I use my thumb nail on the thread
there and move it CW on the tread there and if nail moves inward that is a right hand thread, some just look at it, but Id need glasses to do that and a powerful light. LOL
if not it's left hand jam nut.
the reason they do that is so if say road debris (say off road tree branches ) hit the nuts on the bottom they dont go loose. so left nut may be left hand thread. IDK but look.
same is true on axle nuts on some cars , not all but many.
always look at threads of all things that spin, for left and right hand threads. (not saying this is, )
