<<I also have changed shocks on many many vehicles. The nut will twist for just about every shock newbie. There is a space at the top of the bolt/stud to apply a wrench to keep the shaft from turning>>

DYK that there is a socket that actually fits the top of the shock shaft?

DYK that this alone is the ticket to get most all shocks removed fast and painlessly?

No heat, no vice grip's, no hacksaw blades, no pain, no strain, no muss, no fuss.
