I have one shock apart it took a lil thinking to get it though. Lubricating the threads wasnt enough to remove the 17mm nut from the rod its attached too, it's happy to spin with the 17mm thats a huge pain in the A. What I did was make a mafia style lariat wrapped it through the spring and twist twist twist til the rod and spring almost touched and then turned the 17mm with a pair of lock pliers finally it came apart. So i've got to that point on shock number 2 and am going to put some oil on it to soak in over night because I dont feel like wrestling two tonight.
Thanks for the hard work keeping this forum functioning Smithers.
