[QUOTE="Electrokid, post: 16234564, member: 131295"] Next issue I seem to be having... Not sure how much I'm supposed to tighten this new top nut from Bilstein. Again, no instructions or information to be found anywhere which I'm finding extremely frustrating. Anyways, the nut is tight on there, but I'm under the impression that it needs to actually pull the shaft of the strut up through the lock nut using the hex there. So I've got my 7mm hex but something has to hold the nut to keep it from spinning. If you don't, the whole shaft of the strut just spins. I've tried adjustable wrenches, offset wrenches, pliers, but nothing fits in that recess from these strut tops. Does anyone have the secret tool or way to do this?
