of the piston. How the hell do you tighten then down if you can't use the hazet tool?

Default You need a 11/16th spark plug socket for the nut, but around the adjustment tab

you will see it accepts a 11mm socket. I did the typical deal with the 11mm socket inside the spark plug socket with an extension and a 1/4 socket, and positioned it to put pressure on the hood hinge. That will hold the strut in place and not spin. I then too an open ended wrench and tightened down the 11/16 spark plug socket on the nut. Worked perfectly... Do a search there is a post about it from Mike @ Pure Motorsports.

Default Actually, you should be able to run a 1/4" drive through the center of the outer Hazet to the same

or better effect. Can you try that tonight?
