I must be living right.

After some rough roads with a trailer, I noticed a rattle from the back end. I crawled underneath and noticed the arm wich connects the rear shock with the frame/body, had broken. Hence, the shock was rattling loose. Now mind you, I immediatley recalled the volumes of horror stories on removing the botls. Hence, with no prior PB Blaster or not even a 1/2 breaker bar I turn the bolts. Guess what? They came out with no problem. First, I fix all the leaks on my 4.0, now I get out the bolts for the shocks with nary a problem. Life is good. Or, perhaps it is a sad commentary on my life that this is all it takes to make me happy!

yeah, you are lucky. i did a 3.5 inch lift a month ago and i broke all 4 upper shock bolts. i was not lucky.

Lucky you. I parted out a '93 and had no problem with the upper bolts. Me lucky too
