I've seen plenty of information about how to remove stuck shock bolts, but besides cutting the tub and using a wrench from above I don't see much about installing new hardware. I have a stock 2005 Rubicon, but with custom storage built in the cargo area so I don't want to pull all that and cut the tub.
*If I drop the tank and raise the tub a couple inches on one side, will I have enough wrench access to install new shock bolts? Is raising the tub enough for future replacement
*I already bought Rancho RS5000x. If I use Bar Pin Eliminators, can I pull the bar pin from the Ranchos and still use them?
I plan on doing everything I can to save the bolts, but the amount of torque and the overall feel I got from the front makes me think the rear bolts will break.
Thanks,
Joe
