Low and behold I try to do my front springs from my current shite to my vogtlands...thought I'd start on the passenger side, since there's less room to work with, was a b!tch but got it done. I move to the drive side, wheel off, droplink etc and get to take the top mount bolts and cap off only to realise...THAT THE ALLEN KEY JUST ROTATES IN IT wish I'd found the bellend that did this, I'm sure it was a cowboy garage from years ago when I first had the car but there you go...live and learn
So now I've got a b@stard new spring and an old spring on the front and have no idea how to fix the rounded problem.
Any advice? Only thing I can thing of is to hack saw a groove in it and use a big a$$ flat head screw driver.
Only other option is going to be new front shocks which I can't afford at the moment!!
