Post by **AN89HATCH** » Fri Jul 23, 2004 12:08 am

I am trying to take the shocks off a s13 240, and I have three off, but the left front has 2 nuts that are stripped. So its stuck on, How can I remove these last 2 nuts.

you mean front struts? if you are talking about the 3 strut tower bolts then its easy. cut them off and buy new upper strut mounts. the mounts come with new studs already in them. i think they are like $30 or so.

struts/shocks are the same thing. Just cut em off

I cant cut them, because the bolts are connected to my chamber plate =(
