I have a 2010 Fiesta JA8 (MK7) on Ap Racing coilovers with AP shocks.

I have lowered the back fully and the drivers side however less that an 1/8 of the way down on the passenger side it got tighter and locked completely and I am unable to determine weather it's locked, cross threaded, rusted or anything?

WHAT CAN I DO??

Can you turn it back the way again? A wire brush of sorts to remove the loose dirt and some lubricant might be enough
