Hi, trying to take of the front passenger side shock off to replace a broken coil spring on a 2014 mk3 Punto 1.3 diesel.
Any advice on how to tackle this and can anyone tell me what the tie rod connected to the shock is called just in case I need to replace that too.

Many thanks
 
For anyone else doing this, I used a ball joint splitter to clamp the shock while I turned the to top nut with a spanner. Worked a treat. Had to cut off the bolts on the dropbar but it was inexpensive to replace.
