Strut nut tool
Hey guys im after the tool that takes off the nut on top of the strut casing. This allows the dampers to be taken out.

Clamp the nut in a bench vise, and then rotate the strut. A vise is
like a large adjusting spanner... one vise fits every size of nut Cheers... jondee86 |

For the SW20 AGX inserts I used the OEM strut top nuts and had some
material removed from the inside in a lathe. Otherwise, you could try and get some nuts from your Koni dealer. Cheers... jondee86 |
