Turning makes a moaning sound

[Regulus]

As I have more or less finished repairing rust on my Jeep, and the brakes. It passed the MOT yesterday

I am back working on my S8.
A retired truck driver (neighbour) is certain the moaning originates from the strut/shock mount. So I am checking them.

I also need to replace the tie rod on the right side, as that was completely seized. Hence the wheel couldn't be adjusted.

No matter what I tried, it was stuck. So I cut it off to get access with the tool.
That didn't work. Probably wrong type.
Tried with a 38mm socket. Again no luck. The socket is hexagon, and not octagon

Is now the time to give my self a pat on the shoulder and congratulate myself for not making sure I had all the CORRECT tools?

I got one question too. As I removed the covers in the wheelbase I spotted a loose item. Where does it belong???

I wish that would have been my problem
