But anyway I tried tightening it and it just spins (this is the center bolt with the Allen key in the middle) I stuck a screwdriver to pry at the bolt and nut and it moves considerably while the other side does not. I’m sure this is the issue, any ideas? Blown strut,strut mount?

How did you try tightening it? You need a pass through socket + allen key to tighten it properly, if you only used one it will only ever spin.
