Changing the front shocks

I can't get the top nut loose inside the engine well. The top bell just spins. I've tried putting some small vice grips on the top post, but it's too small to get a good grip. This is a crazy system. They shouldn't be this difficult.

Re: Changing the front shocks

The easiest way is to go through the wheel well with a sawzall and cut them off. Takes about 30 secs.

Re: Changing the front shocks

I was getting to that point. I don't doubt you, but what a crazy-ass way to build something.

Re: Changing the front shocks

I just did this a month or so ago. Spent 20 mins on the first side w/ wrenches, grips etc. Finally said screw it and cut it off. The 2nd side took 30 secs! LOL!
