Re[2]: Rear shocks lower bolt



     Just an FYI here, everyone is removing the nuts at the top of the 
     shocks inside the hatch FIRST right.  Break the lower bolt's nut while 
     on the ground-- then jacking the car removing pressure from the lower 
     bolt.  Then the lower bolt should slip out or if rusted hammer/spin 
     out.
     
     When reassembling use some anti-seaze.
