Did I damage my Konis? I usually take the torque arm off with the rear on ramps.
This time I did it with the body on jacks (rear wheels off the ground) but when i took the arm off, i noticed the shock mount bushings were stressed. Nothing broke and it seemed to ride fine once all was back together and i went for a drive. I havent tried making an adjustment yet.
Im sure people have done it both ways plenty of times. Anybody ever damage a shock this way?

Should be fine.... didn't help the bushings, but I'm sure didn't break anything.
