you can buy a strap tool from Sears for like $10. you tighten the top nut with a pass through socket and allen wrench (I would use a set of pliers to hold the allen wrench. use the pliers to hold the short end of the wrench horizontally while you use the long end to insert into the hex on top of the shock)

use the strap wrench to hold the shock shaft (the shiny metal part)
