I can live with less than perfect grammar and spelling, because since editing and proofreading is part of my job, I HAVE to--or I wouldn't HAVE a job.

I worked at a major New York ad agency, where some of the top people there--big-earning account executives--were pitiful, but still brilliant and making incredible livings. (I wasn't, and still am not.)

However, in this thread, I too was kind of tempted to post something about that post winning the world's longest sentence contest. When you combine that with this kind of technical subject matter, you have to really take your time to explain yourself clearly.

People are here to help, but you also have to put in a little effort to help them DO that.

Sorry everyone I didn't know that grammer, correct sentence form, and spelling mattered on this forum all the rest of the forums I've been on it doesn't matter how you type just that you get your point accrose to everyone.

Some people just like to complain  :P However, proper spelling, and grammer help with getting your point accross, as members will not need to figure out what you're trying to say.

The last lift I did I had the same problem with the drivers side strut, the strut mount would not slip off, we tried everything we could think of with the tools we had, eventually it was not usable. We ended up getting a used replacement strut/upper mount from a parts rig up the road for $20.

As for the lower bolts, I'd cut them off and get new ones, but it's hard to suggest without seeing.
I will send you some picture's to look at.

All right guys we need to all play nice ;D Some people are not like others and you should understand that. Im guessing this is a young kid who is looking for some help. SO INSTEAD OF BASHING HIM try to have some common courtesey(see even I don't spell perfect) and give the kid a break. The last thing we want is to have zukiworld.com known as a rude , bashing bunch of A holes running this web site.
So please, not everyone is perfect and try to understand that. :D

I think She is looking for some help  ;) . What size is the spindle nut on a trakick kuz if it's 50mm like the sami you need to order one for hawk's or Trail Tough

I like the good old fashioned way of getting the spindle nut off.
Its as easy as taking a flat punch and tapping it free...well ya its going to gouge up the nut a bit. But hey...it got it free.

B.F.H. (big f***in hammer) is all that is needed, oh and some slug wrenches! They really come in handy for breaking those stubborn seized up nuts and bolts loose  ;D
