HELP shock install
Ok I am in the middle of installing the front shocks. I can't get the bolt off that is under the master cylinder I loosened it but still can't get to it. Are there any other tricks to getting it off?

Also called the ABS block and module, where all the brake lines connect. You can just unbolt the 2 master cylinder bolts but you will have to bend the 2 brake lines coming out of it a little to be able to move it out of the way.

just take out the 2 master cylinder bolts, and using some strenght just pull it out and up to clear the bolt you are taking out. you can pull the master right off the studs and let it rest on top of them, thats what i did. just as long as you dont superman it and bend the lines. but it moves out of the way easily

Thanks guys I finally finished is was rough. I did force the master cylinder out and this worked. Also for any one thinking of doing this remember to align the sting perch and the upper shock mount correctly to the holes on top because if nit you will need to compress the spring again. This happened to me. As for the shocks I am not sure I feel much of a difference between stock and Slp bilstiens.
