At the very end of the rod you should notice a couple of 'flats'. There is actually a special socket that holds the rod from turning using those flats, while allowing you to tighten the nut.
Or, you could do what most people do, use vice grips on the flats, or the rod itself, to keep it from turning, bs Sent from my iPad 3 On Jun 11, 2012, at 1:25 PM, [email protected] wrote: > I am replacing my Konis with Bilsteins.
