Was changing front struts today and one side (the first side I was working on) the lower strut flag nut broke it's welds to the "flag" so the nut just spins. The other side came off nice and easy, albeit I think these are original struts from waaaaaaaaaaay back. So any idea what size the nut is on that flag nut? Silly me didn't measure it when I had the other side off, except to know that it didn't fit my 24mm combination wrench. 25mm? 26mm?
When I can get it off, I'll have it re-welded to the flag.
At least I got all the nuts (3x top 13mm and the knuckle ball joint and sway bar top nut) sprayed/soaked with PB Blaster, broken loose and re-tightened until I can get to the bottom bolt.
