That Bosch looks nice (lots of torque). I just struggled with the rear shocks on one of our c900s. Top bolts were easy after a little liquid wrench. Bottom bolts were completely seized (after 20 years). No luck with a breaker bar, even with copious amounts of liquid wrench. My weak little impact wrench didn't work on this at all. I ended up giving the (otherwise easy) job to my indy to do. So get a good one with lots of torque!
