I know this topic has come up before, but for the life of me I cannot get to the nut on the top shock bolt. I am no expert but do know some things (installed my own spindle lift). I am tempted to throw in the towel at this point and pay the stealership $200 to install them.
Is my problem that I am using a stubby ratchet when I should be using a stubby wrench? The threads I have seen talk about wrenches about 2 inches long but I can only find ~5 inch wrenches. My ratchet falls off as soon as I reach for my impact wrench. I would cut a regular wrench but don't have the tools to do so.
My understanding is that the nuts should have wings to catch onto the frame but mine just spin.
Thoughts on what I am doing wrong?
