    Don't cut that. Taco coil buckets are weak to begin with. Pb blaster the threads and lift the wheel off the ground.

    The issue is I can't get a fucking coil nut wrench in there cuz there's no fucking space and the resi hose is in the way on the other side. I got one full turn and now I can't get it to go anywhere else.

    I like using dry lube since it won't attract dirt and dust on the thread. Yes I said I like it dry.....

    Think you are going to need to use a punch. Just make sure there is lube and no weight on the CO.

    Something to help loosen the threads. Just wash the truck after.

    Yup I used a 5/16" punch grinded down to the size of the hole in the King coilovers. Worked better and cheaper IMO. $8 for the full set....can't beat that!
