In the next few weeks i will be installing new springs, struts and shocks.
The gear i have is dobinson and the front coils and struts are already assembled with a new tophat.
I have installed a kit like this before into my old 120 series loosley guided by the how to thread here on pradopoint and dont recall having too much difficulty. Anyway, i thought i would do some pre-work and see how hard the nuts at the top of the strut were to access and how hard they were to loosen. The one at the back doesnt have much room to spin the spanner, and no room for a socket to be used,and did not spin with reasonable force applied.
Any suggestions?
Is it simply a case of man up and pull at 100%
I should be able to get a breaker bar onto the front nuts, but can only get a ring spanner on to the back
