Default Quick question?
I'm about to do shocks on my Trans Am and I don't have any of the hex head sockets. What size is the ones holding the carpet down in the trunk. The ones for the little hook things. Thanks

It is not a hex tool, it is a Torx head size T-40.

Here are complete instructions for the rear shocks. I just did mine a few weeks ago and am about to do the fronts.

The torx bit for the bolt under the master cylinder is even bigger. I think it is a 50 or something.

Blueknight (I think that is his name) has a nice how to video on here. I used his video for when I did my install.
