Who said it didn’t hate coming out? 😅
This rear shock gave me a huge fight, the bolt was completely seized inside the bush.
I had to saw through the bolt on both sides of the bush with a small hand saw.
It was a real battle, but it’s finally out so it can rest… now the new one will do the hard work

This is the last rear shock still on the car.
It’s completely dead and fighting to stay, but it won’t be here for long 😅
Soon both sides will have fresh suspension on this Mk1.
