23345matt 0 Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 Went to remove top mounts to put new coilovers on but the drivers side one would not shift to the point where the the allen key has sheared the in side of the strut top, anyone got any ideas of how i can remove this ? The Passanger side was a breeze to undo, as far as i can tell they have never been off in the past, Link to post Share on other sites

23345matt 0 Posted October 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 take it with a windy gun they wont have to do the same and stop the strut from spining. Will take it round to my friendly mechanic next week Link to post Share on other sites
legvw 0 Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 Should get the nut off anyway.If not, and your junking your old struts, clamp mole grips around the strut to stop it spinning. Link to post Share on other sites
