Im looking at buying the OEM wrenches and spring holder.
Do you think i may have the same problem with them, perhaps someone wore down the edges on the nuts, or do I just have cheap ass wrenches?
THANKS

you should be able to tell if some idiot tried to adjust them using SAE wrenchs by looking....the edges should not be rounded over
