Popping them out and drilling them out are totally different things. My Jeep's PO DRILLED OUT what was left above the cross member, instead of using a punch, and it's impossible to fish anything longer than 1" through there now. With the lock washers I had to use a hemostat to hold the bolt so I could thread a nut onto it lol

I live in California where we don't have seasons and snow is something you visit. I'm a block from the ocean though, so rust is a slight issue. I was able to do all 4 of my shocks in about half a Saturday. I'm pretty sure I changed out the original shocks. I was able to compress them with zero effort with one hand. It rides so much better now.

Yeah RTorrez1 the bottom of my Cherokee is rusted out. It barely passed last inspection. It's a shame because if it wasn't for the rust, I think it could go for 5 more years. The engine and tranny still run great.
In August I plan to get a newer Cherokee.

part it out if its in that kind of condition why bring it to a jy and waste a good engine and tranny you could get almost double of what the jy will give you for that drivetrain alone
