Default How to Remove Teraflex Rear Sway Bar Links?

Hey guys, I'm in the middle of installing the Metalcloak Gamechanger lift. I've hit a snag on removing the rear sway bar links. They came from the Teraflex 2.5" coil lift that I'm taking off. The top bolt (the one that is embedded in the link) has no hex grip to get a wrench on to steady. So, when I try and loosen the bolt, it just spins and spins. I'm trying to avoid cutting it off, as I'm trying to sell this kit to a buddy when I'm done. Thanks for any help.

There should be a hex opening on the end of the stud. You will need to use an open end wrench to remove the nut. I have the same ones from Teraflex.

I swear, these didnt have a hex end, or maybe im just not seeing it

At any rate, I got them off, by just manhandling a pair of channel locks.

Thanks for the replies!

Oh, and I quick shot right after finishing!
