Hello everyone,

I have been running kyb agx struts and lowering springs for a long time. Personally I prefer the ride with this set up than coilovers.

Here is the problem when I decided to change my setup to newer AGX's I took of the spring from the old strut. While i am disassembling it, I realize that the whole shaft started to spin. I later deduced that with type of lock washer was busted, the groove was worn out.

In order to get enough threading on the shaft I need to locate this part.....or any other viable suggestions

Use vice grips and leather to hold the shaft from spinning, give it a quick zap with an impact and DONE. I do this all day and have never had a problem.
