Hi , I need some help here, from you guys who did the five lugs conversion .
I am doing the front end right now and the top nut on the struts will not move even after heating it a bit, any suggestions on how to do it ? or should i just remove the total assembly together ?? thanks

We use power tools. Impact gun, ect.
Do you mean the nut on the strut shaft or the strut insert nut that holds the insert in the strut?

the nut on the strut shaft......
No real way to hold strut tube. You will need an impact wrench to get it off without the shaft spinning.
