hey guys, I installed 3/4 of my coil overs. I have a 09 G37s Coupe. I stripped the bolt at the bottom of the front passenger strut. The bolt that bolts around the stud that goes through the bottom of the strut and also through the bracket.
Does anyone one know what size this bolt is so I can get a replacement?
I am still trying to get the bolt off..going to try to use a dremel and cut off the bolt, last resort because I am running out of ideas and have destroyed the bolt.
Irwin bolt extractor. Spray pb blaster let sit for an hour then use the bolt extractor. Happened to me about a month ago.
as for replacement buy a new endlink. The other bolt for the bracket take to a hardware store and compare threads.
Thanks for the replies y’all. I went and tried the bolt extractor and stripped it more. The blue wrench was fun but I don’t think I used it effectively. Ended up using a dremel, hammer and chisel, and lot of patience to cut the bolt off.

Good work. At least you got a smidgeon of fun out of the ordeal. I'd be curious if you smack the front sway bar brackets like I do. My car isn't as low as yours.
