Sprayed silicone lubricant under the metal washer that's under the nut and also onto the lower part of the shock and now I'm able to turn it infinitely even the rubber noise is gone.

I guess I should remove the nut and look under the big washer to see if the rubber is parted from the metal. Won't be easy as the nut is inside the tower so I can't access it with a spanner. If I use a socket from above I won't access the allen socket. Any ideas?
