Is there anyway to pull the shock out without removing the damper fork ?
fork bolt is seized!
time to spray loads of wd-40 and let it sit, i dont think there is another way unless you take off the front lower arm?
if your talking about the part where the fork is held onto the shock. i think you can by taking off the upper ball joint. take off the bolt on the fork that goes threw the lower arm. take off the mounting bolts on top hat. the whole assembly should drop down if you dont hold it. then swing up the upper arm and you MIGHT get it out.
Easy…Disconnect the fork from the strut…
Step on it to break it loose, then disconnect the upper control arm and the strut from the top and it should be loose to grab out…
Be careful not to step on your hub too hard, meaning just watch out for your axle poppin’ loose in the cv joint area, or else you’ll have to put your cv joints back together…
Dont take off your nut from the top hat, that’ll shoot your struts down and decompress your springs, and will be harder to get out…
It shouldn’t be hard to do, I’ve done it myself plenty of times…
