I picked up a cheap 1991 80 series and I was getting around to replacing all the shocks with the Tokico ones. The fronts were easy but the rears are giving me some difficulties where it has a bit more rust.
I can't seem to get the bottom bolt out and I may have made it worse. A 17mm socket wouldn't fit but an 18mm fit snugly. After soaking it with PB Blaster, trying to take off the bolt with the 18mm stripped the head. What should my next steps be?
I also have replacement bolts (2x of the 17mm and 4x of the 14mm).
