Hi Joe

Do what Rhys has listed and use a thread locking compound (eg locktite) one that can be undone at a later date on the nut on top of the strut body that holds the insert or the nut could come undone at a later date. On my 82 244gl fitted new front inserts new lowered spring all around and Powersteering in one weekend the front inserts and lowered spring were the quickest and easy part of the job
