Problem with main spring height adjusting nut jammed on Tein HA's so that I can't adjust them. I have taken the coilover off the car and used a huge pipe wrench but it just chews into the aluminium nut and won't budge it. What to do? I don't have the Tein adjusting wrench but can't imagine how that would give me anything like enough pull and to shift this nut. I have drowned it in Rp7, have tried silicon spray and have tried a punch and hammer in the slots of the nut but am afraid of breaking it to do any more. Maybe have to just get savage and hit harder and if it breaks I will have to replace the nut. It is hard to hold the shock too so that it doesn't deform or move. Can anyone help with some case studies of what you did. Regards John
