  • lower shock mount removal?

    Hey, has anyone ever tried to remove the lower shock mount on the drive side? Is this a threaded stud? Any ideas welcome. Thanks, Chad.

    Hey there Chad,

    All I can tell you is that the parts Fiche doesn't show it as a separate piece/stud, just part of the differential case!? However, the mount is steel, and isn't the diff. case aluminum, so it had to be put there somehow!? Perhaps someone has a trashed one they can experiment on!?

      LR Shock Mount

      I have R&R my rear shocks but never had a reason to remove the stud from the rear drive housing. Best I can remember it is a steel stud threaded into an "ear or tab" in the rear drive housing. Like;y secured with "Loctite".
