just a quick one, ive installed lowering springs yesterday, but when i went to remove the top nut on one of the front struts it was a bitch to do, eventually i got it off and installed the spring, but when putting the top mount back on the top nut would only go on 4-5 threads then the rod started so spin, the nut isnt far enough down to grab the top of the rod like i had to when removing the nut, and i cant get a decent grip on the lower part of the rod without probably causing damage to it...
so my question is, do i get a vice grips and clamp it on tight to the lower part of the rob behind the dust cover or would it be alright to leave as is??
i would prefer to clamp and tighten, but dont want to do any damage.
thanks in advance
