I sort of agree, but I also think there's a chance that once you remove the existing bolt, the insert could shift in the housing and make it impossible to thread the new bolt in. I'd check with Koni, but I think you may end up having to take all of the weight off of that corner with a jack before you can thread the new bolt. Tough to say not having any first hand experience though.

Glad to hear Koni's reputation is deserved regarding customer service. I hear they'll next day you a whole insert if one dies on you.
