It should look like the passenger side.

Sorry I forgot to multi-quote. The tighter nut is similar your install matt?

Depending on the size of the nut, you may be able to use a sparkplug socket. Put the socket on and grab the collar with a wrench and stick an Allen wrench trough the socket to hold the strut in place, and tighten the nut. Hope this helps.

i think its a 19mm nut. get a deep socket and rip the impact gun on it. that will tighten it down plenty

I took it back to have it evened up. Turns out that on that lower side, the shitty shop never installed the mount under it. The fun keeps on going...bad wheel bearing to boot
