June 24, 201113 yr comment_359639 Some people put thread lock on the gland nut, which may be why it was so hard to get out. I don't really get why. I can't see the thing spinning off once it is torqued.Our car had one gland come loose not too long after replaceing the struts. Luckily, we noticed it before it fully untrheaded or casued any damage. Perhaps we did not tighten it properly the first time around. Seems ok after re-tightening it.
