| I went to take the shocks off of the commander and some of the bushings are stuck on the shock and some just fell off.
How in the heck do you get the ones off? I talked to HOT ROD RHINO last night and he said to use penetrating oil. I have been soaking the frozen up ones over night and they still have not budged.
Any other thoughts? |

| Just realized your pain when I took mine apart! I was nowhere near the 1000 miles they recommend. Pb blaster is a huge help but I had to let my bottom bushings on my front shocks soak. The eyelets in my rear shocks were seized up so bad they wouldnt even move the smallest little bit! Lol it's a long tedious process that's for sure!! | |

| Its a life saver!! I took the front end apart first and the top bushings came out so easy, but the bottom ones are pressed and they didnt want to come out at all. But got it all taken care of and now no squeak at all thanks to some bel ray grease! Lol | |
