I was changing my rear shocks and broke the head off of both bolts holding the top of the shock. Any suggestions for getting the remainder of the bolt out of there? Thanks!

Punch the broken bolts out with an air hammer and fish new bolts in from the top. Those break almost every time and it's a very easy fix.

Where do you come in with the bolts? Acess panel in cargo area?

Honestly I don't remember the size of the bolts. You can get them at any hardware store. Just grade 8 bolts.

You can get a wrench on them. You can see the area in the picture.

Yea where did you fish those bolts in from the top? I tore up all my interior carpet in the back and see no kind of access? Can't see anything on the bottom either? Thanks for the other advice air hammer punched them out with ease
