I got the rear sway seperated from the shock bolts using a big wrench and 'popping' them off like a pickle fork would do. What is the correct way to reattach them?
Thanks. -Aaron |

Just beat them back on? I don't have to do anything like remove the bushing. put it on the shock bolt, then slide the rod over top?

I can't quite picture using a pipe wrench... I have a decent sized one that I used for the struts, I'll put it up there and see if anything makes sense.
In a pinch could I use a C-Clamp to squeeze them back together? Thanks. |
