    When you remove the old shock and bracket remove them as a unit and trace the angle between shock and bracket on a piece of cardboard to use as a guide for the new shock. It's absolutely mandatory that you preset the angle between the shock and the lower mounting bracket before you install your shocks because there's no way to tighten the lower bolt after the shock goes into the lower control arm and that torque setting is fairly high.

    Did you do anything to the bolts before you put the impact wrench on them to remove the nuts? ie. Put penetrating oil or heat on them to loosen them up?
    BTW... what is the note about "Ethereum"? Never heard of that.

      Gear-Report.com no, but then again it’s a 2002 truck.

      I didn't need to use an impact wrench, just a large socket and breaker bar. Here in CA we don't have the rust issues lot's of the country has but if I did I would use some Kroil on the bolts. Best penitent and lubricant I've ever found.

    It's not a 1-7/16 socket!!
