Hey guys, I was trying to remove the shock cartridge from my front struts today, but, it's a b**** to take off the large nut that holds it in. Any ideas to help ease the nut removal. LEt me know, thanks.

first time I think we set it on the ground, took a pipe wrench, with a pipe on the end for added leverage and finally got it off..
second time my friend took it to work where they have a huge vise and he has a huge wrench that got it off with ease.. -------------------- ~Daniel~ No Longer Celica Owner.. moved on to a 03 WRX-EJ207
