I'm having a problem tightening the nut that holds the top of the front shock absorber. I've used an impact wrench, but still can't tighten it enough without the shock turning.
Did the factory have a special wrench to hold the support washer (911 341 018 00) that fits into the slot cut into the threads on the top of the shock absorber? If so, does anyone have a pic and/or description? -- Rob |

Thanks John, that's what I was looking for....where did you get yours?
Joe, I didn't use the impact wrench to put it on, only to take if off, I tried using the torque wrench to tighten it..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) -- Rob |
