Just bought a set of Monroe shocks. Bed is off so I thought it'd be super quick and easy, that was at 8am it's now 3pm. I usually take my time because of my disability but this is ridiculous, lol. I got the frame up with the tires in the air, I got the old shocks off, slipped in the top of the new ones and threw in the top bolt and went to do the bottom but it's not compressed and the bottom is about 4" from were it needs to be, when i give it all my muscle it gets to 2", should I disconnect the coils too?
