Heeeyyyyy youuuuu guyyyysssss,
I kinda need a new rear shock absorber bolt (bottom one) as it has started to round the head off when trying to loosen and tighten it, and now it is completely stuck so I have about 6-7mm of freeplay on the bolt....
I'm unsure of where I can get the proper bolt? and what thread type it is etc? The bolt has a 21mm head and is 14mm wide and is approximately 145mm long.
Cheers.

Nope, just too strong for French cars obviously... nah the bolt is in such s**t condition I think where I've loosened it off to the point of where the rust is it's just gotten stuck and won't go any further.

I've used over 450ml of WD40 on the car today lol. I'll be ordering new nuts and bolts for the shocks and then I'll cut the old ones off. Sorted
