    So, started to work on adding the new leaf packs and ran into an issue trying to take off the rear bilsteins...

    The driver side shock came off with a little bit of PB blasting into the top end of the shaft bolt.

    The passenger side shock did not though, and ended up stripped out. Channel locks did not help either...

    So it looks like I'm cutting off the passenger rear shock next weekend. I have icon 2.0's on their way. I'll eventually swap the front coilovers for icons, probably later this season.
