Started installing in my coilovers today only issue I have run into so far is getting the brake line bolt off of the OEM strut it seems like it does not wanna budge at all anyone have any advice on this ?

Can you take a picture of which bolt you're talking about?

Its the bolt that holds the brake line to the strut. I would take a pic but I called it a day already

Penetrating oil should help. Liquid Wrench is quite good for the price.

Ya I am gonna give that a shot tomorrow if still won't budge I will just replace the lines with stainless ones

A breaker bar (even a makeshift one made from a wrench and a pole) works wonders

Ya it's just so close to the brake line I gotta be careful not to screw that up

I'd use a wrench and a rubber mallet in that enclosed area. Lol.

Maybe its tome to buy a gym membership

The bolts were just completely seized up when I put the springs in I must have over torqued them.
