replacing shocks
I got some new shocks for the truck. I got the fronts done and the ride is much better. Well I went to do the rears, and I couldn't get to the top bolt on top of the frame on the drive side shock mount. What would be the best tool to get the old rusty bolt out with little or no clearance?

Re: replacing shocks
That one is a pain. What I did was put a 15/16 wrench (I think, double check size) on the large nut on the inside part of the bracket that you can't reach, and used a 1/2" breaker bar on the part you can reach, the bolt head. Not the best way to do it, you usually want to hold the bolt and loosen the nut, but it worked. You may want to pick up some deep penetrating oil if you haven't already. Something like PB Blaster should do the trick.
