Coilover install help

Trying to install aftermarket coilovers

Having a crazy difficult time getting the axial bearings unbolted.

Parts numbers 17 and 10.

Any recommendations?

did you use a spring compressor? if you took out the bolt number 15 it should be easy. Or use a spring compressor and air impact gun it should come off easily

yep, got 3, 15, 49, 12, 11 off. compressed the springs, and 17 just spins with the bolt. no matter how much I impact it, nothing happens cause the bolt is spinning.

ended up just buying a new set online, be here in a few days. Time to just throw the stock ones at a wall haha
