Good old stock shock replacement - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hey everybody.

Replacing my stock shocks on my stock K10.

I am guessing these bolts have been on a while...many years.

I am soaking the bolts with PB Blaster now...

What is the best way to get these off?

Impact wrench

or just grinding them off.

I do not mind buying new bolts as in a few years I am going to take them off again.

Does one use antiseize on shock bolts? Or is that a no-no. I guess I am trying to think a couple years down the road.

I guess a good topic would be when to use lock tite and when to use antiseize.
