Shock Bolt Spinning at Samuel Goggins blog

Shock Bolt Spinning. this isn't a toyota thing. hey folks, just doing a rear shock on my 03 pilot and having a hard time getting the upper bolt off on left drivers side shock. tried to remove my front lower shock bolt this afternoon and the nut has come loose from the tab that keeps it. if your installing new shocks, unbolt the lower mount and bend the shock out until the upper shaft snaps off. Just break the nut loose. to keep the piston shaft from spinning while tightening up the top nut on your shocks, we recommend using a 5mm or 6mm allen wrench (it could be either. Once you break the nut loose you shouldn't need to hold the flat spot anymore. seems a lot of hard work and uncertainty but it can be done and it avoids lifting carpets etc. now working on the fronts and the lower nut is not welded on and the little metal bar that is supposed to help undo. Easiest fix is to hook. Finished the other side in. i'm trying to install my new drop springs, but i can't for the life of me get the upper shock bolt to come off!
