Gotta hold the middle with a 10mm and use the cutout 16mm to loosen. Soon as it turns the impacter will remove it the rest of the way.
Installing you MUST hand tighten. Pay attention to the direction of the connector, and use the 10mm to rotate if needed.

I think Tommy had it loose already, or he got lucky. Mine spun too, so I had to look up the proper steps. I saw how the impacter was used to re-tighten but I look up TQ and hand tighten with TQ wrench.

Just because you can tighten with an impact doesn’t mean you should. And I’ll argue that using a torque gun is not BMW spec... I know the Bilstein kit I have specifically stated to not use an impact gun on that specific nut. |

@audioMeth has a great suggestion using the brake wrench (I'll need one soon). You can also use a 10mm on a little quarter breaker since a 1/4 ratchet head doesn't fit inside the cutout.

Thanks to this tutorial, I was able to diy my springs. First time doing it and was able to do it on my own. Just make sure you have the proper tools and take your time.

rear a arm bolt removal and replacement.
When reinstalling this bolt.... If you are not on a lift... make sure when you go to reinsert this bolt that you can see the far side of the fork on the a arm... when using the jack or by hand to get it realigned to reinstall the bolt... if you just blast away, the other side may not be aligned and you will hit the a arm with the bolt and spread it apart..... Ask me how I know!
As the bolt starts to thread on the far side you will know quickly if it is aligned. |
