dam things wont come lose any body kno a good way to get them to break loose at the top? or a way to fix them once i break off the bolts?

 

blast the crap out of em with penetrating oil and go slow, then when they break it seems you need to cut a hole in the floor and use nuts and bolts

 

When they break, get an air hammer and hit them and the weld not will break loss and then get new nuts bolts and washers.

 

dam it they just broke. DAM ITi guess nuts and bolts it is i think ill try the airhammer first and if that dont work guess ill have to drill them out i dont wanna cut holes in the floor but i might have to

 

You don't have to cut holes!!! air hammer the welded nuts out, tape a new bolt to a box end wrench and fish it into the hole through the triangular hole in that area. put a nut on it , repeat for the other one. Mount the shock, repeat on the other side. Takes about 20 minutes if you work slow! Here's a write up http://www.jeepsunlimited.com/forums...d.php?t=810303

 

right click save, im about to do a lift and this is a good write-up

 

x2 great link some one do that and make a tech write up

 

Sorry finneys ! I've already done mine, Only problem I had was my impact twisted the Rt lower stud off! Had to grind it off, drill a hole through the mount and incrementally move it up to the right size and get a Grade 8 bolt for it. My 20 minute project ( upper bolts took 20 minutes)took a couple hours.

 

I just broke all 4 of mine last week, I drilled thru them and tapped the hole a little bigger and put new bolts and washers on. good luck it sucked!!!

 

hot dam the air hammer worked once i got them out i just tacked a piece of mig wire to the end and used that to line up the new nuts thats for the help

 

did you take pics? if so do a write up for people like me who have not run into this YET.
paaaaahhhlease

 

sorry bro i didnt get a chance to take pics i was in a hurry i can tell that if u have a air hammer wit a pointed tip u shouldnt have a problem if they break off lemme kno how it goes
