Default Need Help! Koni DA and GW adjusters

Anyone here have experience installing the Global West front spring adjusters on Koni DA shocks? I'm having a hard time getting the upper mount off the shock - the jam nut is extremely tight and difficult to get at with a wrench. Any tips or tricks to this?

Already called Global West. Their suggestion was open end wrench and lots of WD-40. Been there, done that. Fearful I'm going to destroy the jam nut because the wrench slips off so easily.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Excellent! Thank you so much.

Didn't know about the FRRAX forum. I'm registering there now though!
