What tools are you guys using to remove the top shock bolts. I can't seem to find anything that fits in there properly. I have an 11 SE. Thanks

I think the last time I removed & reinstalled mine i used a 3/8 drive pass thru ratchet with a shallow socket which with the pass thru ratchet makes it an extra shallow socket& is great for tight clearance areas,as for under the hood yes I don’t know of any other way to get to the bolts & nutsAre you using the wrench inside the front hood?
