    when i installed and removed the bilsteins they have a nut that you can put a wrnech on to keep it from spinning when installing the insulator nut.

    I remember that dude being a PIA to get off.

    You got any ratcheting box end wrenches? One of those on the nut and a open end on the shaft.

    Sold my 2002 BLK #9638 to my wife's uncle, Sold my 2003 BLK #6682 to a nameless man local to me.

    Borrow a strap wrench from the local parts store to hold the shock.
