I want to lower my volvo 240 a bit so i bought a set of lesjofors lowering springs and adjustable gaz struts and shocks. I've completed the front end and are now working on the back.
The bolt thats holding the rear spring in place at the lower end is causing me problems.
I managed to break the nut loose with an impact gun, but the nut won't come of the nut. I can see about 3 mm of thread and rotate the spring seat, but there's no way i can hold the bolt to keep it from spinning when i am trying to remove the nut.
The bolt has a round head, so i can't use a wrench or socket to hold it in place. I've tried to fixate the bolt by putting a screw driver under the seat and put some pressure on it, but it doesn't generate enough friction to hold the bolt in place.
Does anybody have tips for my on how to remove the bolts from the lower spring seats?
