i cant get it unattached from the subframe. it spins with the nut and unlike the swaybar links there doesnt seem to be anything to hold on the other side. there is somesort of dimple on top of the bolt but unless its stripped i cant stick an allen key or anything in it to hold. so i figure some sort of god damn special tool?
thanks guys without your help i would never be able to fix
