What do you have to do with the ttops to get the rear shocks out???
And you have to take the carpet out....sounds like a nightmare.

they aren't cutout to begin with. if you look close at the factory carpet you can see its sorta cut(perforated) where your susposed to cut. I didn't cut mine the first time I changed rear shocks but did the second time cause mine are adjusted through that spotOriginally posted by meissen View PostComment

Next time heat up the nut/bolt with a good torch(hand held won't be hot enough). The nut will start to glow orange/red and the bushing will start to burn. You should be able to take a wrench and slowly work the nut forward and backward as you are taking it out. Every week I usualy remove at least one broken off bolt from something, Some times it required welding. For example, the shock mounts on 63-82 corvettes cost $90 each, so spending a few extra minutes on them is worth it.
I understand not every one has acess to torches but they are a good investment.
Breaking bolts with a breaking bar usually results in bloody knuckles.Last edited by bri2203; March 31st, 2009, 07:57 PM.Comment

I love having a car from down south... I got my shocks swapped in half an hour. Everything under my car has came out with hand tools and no breaker bars
