I don't understand why the fck there is locktight on that damn stud.. I'd like to find the Nissan engineer that thought that was a good idea and kick him square in the nutz.

I ended up putting a set of vice grips around that nut and busting the stud free from the old housing.. what a pain.. I should have busted out the Dremel. Nice job..

Took my rotary tool with the metal cutting disc and just cut the nut straight down.

If anyone runs into this problem, just cut it.

Thanks again for the DIY!
