    Lots of torque - I have never really cared about the feedneck when I did it, so I just grabbed them with a pair of vicegrips and twisted...

        YAY I did it. it only took me about 5 minutes. Alot easier than i thought it would be. I used a table vise with a bunch of cloth around my feedneck so i didnt scratch it too bad. It came right out.

          As I have found from a previous post, use a strap wrench if you care about it, or something else if you dont

            pour hot water on it, and then use the strap wrench. Please spend the 10 bucks on a strap wrench.

              You remove your own dammed feedneck. I like mine where it is, thanks.

                Another that i do often is take a peice of wood and drill a hole in it slightly smaller than the feedneck. Then I cut it in half right down the middle of the hole.

                Basically, I just chuck them in a vice with the feedneck in the hole and twist it off, it works all the time!

                    One of mine required a blow torch in addition to strap wrench.
