Message	Note to self, when shock piston rod lock nut becomes frozen, attempts to remove it may cause piston shaft to violently remove itself from shock body releasing all gsseous and liquid contents. Liquid contents will kill grass and stain clothing including suede work shoes. Big thanks to WhitepealZ for his help and air tools. In about 12 hours we managed to replace 4 OEM shocks, replace one new shock with old shock, new springs, SS brake lines, new brake fluid, and retap a sway bar mounting hole. Even had a neighbor ask if there was a 300ZX garage sale going on. "Too dumb for opera, too smart for NASCAR."
