Fitting shocks - second bolt help
Is there a prescribed method for getting the second lower shock bolt fitted???
I'm trying to do the rears - I can get the top one in or the bottom on in but can't see an obvious way of lining up the second hole.
Tried jacking the arm up, spring compressors, removing drop-link and any other combinations. Is there some secret method or is it purely a 2-man brute force effort

Managed to get the bolt back in with a pry and a decent amount of force. Got the bolt in just enough to be able to get a C-Clamp on it and wind it through. All gotta come off again as I was sent the wrong top-mounts...
Are the fronts any easier or is there a technique for those also?
