Leave the strut bolted to the turret with the three Torx screws, then put a 21mm spark plug socket over the threaded spindle, and insert a T50 bit through the centre of the spark plug. I gave this a test run today, using a 3/8" spark plug socket and the hole in the middle wasn't big enough for the T50 bit to go through it. So, my question for those who have used this method is, if I use a 1/2" spark plug socket instead of 3/8", would that allow a T50 through? (I don't have a 1/2" socket at the moment to try it, but they're easilly available). Or, do I instead need to find a T50 bit without a bulky attachment on it instead?
