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
 

14mm wrench and 14mm short socket with a swivel, extension with a ratchet
 
i use a 14 mm ratchet wrench with a flex able end and a normal 14 mm wrench.
 
Are you using the wrench inside the front hood?
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 & nuts

Thank you I will give that a try
