    Tightening Struts...

    Shitty JOM Coilovers, these things are squeaking up like a mother against the rubber...There isn't really anything I can hold down the top with while I try to tighten up the strut nut. I tried using a 7mm wrench but the top stud is only two sided.

    Am I doing something wrong?

      I used an adjustable wrench, just make sure that fucker is tight with no play or it'll strip the top of the bolt

          The shock bolt would have to be pretty loose to cause noise. I'd suggest that you look elsewhere (sways or rtabs) for the cause.
          The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.
