How do you have the spring compressed? When I did the springs in my Acura the nut just came loose easy. Maybe try and hold on to the rod with pliers? Isn't there an allen socket at the top of the rod that you can hold?
yeah you need the allen key in there and turn the bolt otherwise the whole thing will twist with it. make sure you wd-40 that thing up . so you dont strip the allen key hole etc. hope that helps
