Two words - vise grips. Just clamp the hood strut.

Why order the bolts when you can trade them?
I am so glad you tried the method. I didn't think that I was that special that I could do it and no one else could! You never got back to me to help you do it, so I wondered if it worked. Thanks for letting me know.

I know this is a little late but it might help others in the future. I just replaced this past weekend the lifts on my 92 Legend. I bought them from advanced auto and they came with a replacement fender mounted ball. Didn't have to deal with removing the old strut.

Would they be included with the struts for the SVX? Maybe not.

The struts came in a plastic pouch that was not sealed and the fender mounts could be easily removed by someone who just wanted only them or they could actually just fall out. They were loose. When I opened mine they fell on the ground. Didn't know they were even in there or why I had them. I found out why quickly.
