LCA strut removal

you need to tighten it up, brush the threads & spray lube-- repeat by now you most likely have ruined the strut/nut threads.
this is how the stubborn ones are -- loosen a bit spray,scrape/brush-- tighten brush/spray loosen--- this takes some time but usually saves the threads/ parts.

I've had success removing axles housing u bolts with this method-- instead of cutting. Lawrence

I have some 73-76 strut rods do not know if I have any 62-72 style-- fine thread on both ends .
