Trying to remove the shaft that holds the front shock into the skid. One side the bolt comes out but the other side just spins. Tried re-installing the bolt and staying with the other side but no luck

You might want to try getting the right size nut (10mm I believe) and threading it 3/4 the way on the bolt you can get out. Thread the bolt with the nut back in then tighten the nut against the skid. Remove the other side you couldn't get out, loosen the nut and thread out that bolt. Has worked for me. Good luck!

Sometimes you can use an impact gun first tighten the side that comes out then use the impact on the side that spinsTrying to remove the shaft that holds the front shock into the skid.
