So im trying to put some mm caster camber plates on, everything is going well but the only thing is i cant seem to get off is the top strut bolt. Ive tried using a flat head screw driver and a wrench to loosen it up but it only seem to just widen the slot. I dont have any air tools to just shoot if off. Any suggestions? Im tryna get these on my day off!

Put weight back onto the strut, aka on the ground. Should do the trick.
