Default Help: Teraflex rear sway bar link install

I installed the rear springs in my new 2.5" coil kit last night, and I'm stumped. How do I install the top bolt of the sway bar link?

On the factory, the inside next to the swivel joint has a spot where you can put a wrench on it, but the TF links don't. And I don't want to grab it with pliers and risk tearing up the rubber boot. But it's completely round, so the nut just spins the whole shaft inside the joint.

Does this make sense?

D'oh!

Thanks, guys. I figured it had to something pretty obvious. I just didn't look careful enough.

Working on the front now. I'm not looking forward to torqueing everything back down. But at least it will be higher off the ground!
