rear shock top mount removal
I'm inthe process of replacing the rear shock.
first one is out, but the nut at the top won't budge and I was planning on re-using the top mount/bellows etc. I put a 5mm allen key in the vice, located the shock on the key (yes fully home ) Spanner on the nut and twisted the allen key, now spiral shaped 2nd key, and that is visibly twisting until I stop applying force to the spanner & it returns to origing shape. I've left it soaking in WD40 Any tips ? appart from get someone else to do it
