They are that cheap just grind it off. If it spins it spins not a great deal you can do.

I think mine cost me about ?3 each feck all really is it?

Wot, u will screw the rod threads! U need to use an oxyacetalean torch if they r stuck! I think garages charge like ?30 to sort it!

or get a big Foff bit of metal and have a mate lever it down so the thing cant spin as you undo it. i found this out today!! its great, very handy

sumtimes a sharp smack with a hammer will force it down enough so it will grip

A decent adjustable spanner on the flat of the rod, or long 9mm spanner. Get someone to hold it while you give the end some wellie! (i had to cook mine with the welding bottles to free the rod off enough to adjust the tracking) When you rebuild it use loads of coppa-slip on the threads. ;)
