how does this bolt break off while taking out the old shock and does anyone know how to replace the mounting bolt easily im in the process of drilling it out cause it wont pound out like i thought to begin with??
 
if your talking about on the radius arm it breaks mostly cuz it just gets rusty...but when i broke mine i just grinded the stud down on both sides then got a punch and a BFH and beat the shit outta it
 
if they arnt already, try removing the bolt with the wheels on the ground. should take any extra bind off the bolt.

b-f
 
ty guys but what i did is actually drill a whole threw it then air grind it basically in half then beat the crap out of it and put my new one in (3 hours of work air compressor isn't big enough to run the tools for long) fml
