Default SPL Outer Tie Rod Ends STUD

I have the GTR "bumpsteer" tire rod ends with the spacers to level the steering
I was checking up on the rod ends by taking them off the car,
The conical "stud" that goes into the wheel spindle, wouldn't come out because the two nuts SPIN THE SAME WAY !! Yes I follow instructions to tighten the top and undo the bottom first, what a terrible design !!
You'd think SPL would have made these with a built in HEX, so far my first experience with SPL and to me they kinda overpriced, mediocre products, yes I said it...
Anyone find a better tie rod end shank with built in hex??
I had to grind the stud to separate the rest of the rod end, lucky SPL has them in-stock...
Miraculously, the rod end held up over the past two years, but the terrible design of the shank makes me want to put oem tire rods back on if I can't find a better "stud"
