Unhappy Vaico shock absorber different?
I bought a Vaico Shock absorber V30-1753. This should fit to my car according to various sites online, but it's very different from the one I currently have on my car. I tried to use it but it didn't fit.

I can't even remove the new one, the bolt and the nut isn't stuck, I can twist them around with my fingers but they don't move...the thread must be destroyed, I didn't even twist them that hard..

Watch to see the shaft spinning with the nut. Clamp on to the shaft and remove the nut.
