Stripped nut on strut mount

[Josh.Hignight@phoenix.edu (Josh Hignight)]

Happened to me too. When I got my Eurosport Acc. bar from Potterman, it came
with 2 correct locking nuts, and 2 incorrect. I didn't know they weren't
correct and tightened them down. I took it off to work on something a week
or two ago and the incorrect ones had stripped the stud on my strut top.
Bummer...
I'm just going to wait it out for a couple weeks until I order my coilovers.

So I went to put my upper stress bar back on today, and one of the nuts on
the strut mount is stripped.   Its loose as hell and spins quite easily but
will not come off.  Any suggestions?  And no, the bolt is not turning.
