Question... Camber plate install

My mechanic is installing Camber plates and doesn't have the special strut socket for the adaptive suspension.

How many of you out there just hit it with an impact socket and took the risk with the EDC? Or is in not worth the risk and just find the proper tool!??

Any help would be appreciated. First track day is Saturday!!!

I comb the threads and the DIY spring install and found no mention of people have an issue with this.

Thanks

The socket only costs $25.
Chances are nothing won't happen. But why risk it?

I can't find the socket??? Do have a part number for one? Or manufacturer?

If I could find it, I would buy it!

You're a good man. Wasn't sure if that was the right one. Have a Schwaben dealer up here in Calgary, will head down there tomorrow morning.

Good luck!
I just installed HAS kit a couple of weeks ago.
It gave me a peace of mind that all nuts and bolts were properly torqued to factory specs.
