Re: Did my first shock removal and Install on a 86!!

I also replaced my shocks last weekend for the time. I didn't have any trouble loosening the lower mounting bolt on the rears, but I DID have a hell of a time getting the shock itself out of the "channel" that makes up the mounting bracket. I had to pry them up from the bottom using a crowbar, but there isn't a whole lot of room. I suppose I could have lowered the spring link, but I REALLY didn't want to get into all that.
I must say I haven't noticed a big improvement in ride. I'm hoping they'll "break-in" after a while.
