xterra rear shocks

such a pain in a ass. 148ft-lbs torque by the book.

they put some type of loctite type stuff ALL down the bolt. crazy hard to get off. impact wouldn't get it. had to use a big breaker bar and my massive muscles.

Yeah lol


I had a 24v impact and a air with a 150psi compressor and it wouldn't budget.

After a lot of pb blaster and muscle I could get it to move about 1/16 of a turn back and forth but wouldn't go
