n/s strut assembly replaced yesterday.

the n/s seemed easier in every other aspect - this bolt however


my 1/2" breaker bar was flexing a fair bit (Halfords Advanced and a decent quality bar too)

even the old 3/8" socket and a knock with the mash hammer wasn't for budging this one - In the end i cranked my 1/2" torque wrench to around 220nm or so and was able to get the bolt moving not ideal to use the torque wrench - however, it's a better shape and doesn't flex
