Actually they were compressing fine on the ground. Same length and same size as the rubis. I'm worried about the rears because if I break those, I don't have replacement hardware.

hit the threads with some pb blaster. Really the rears are nothing to remove. just two easy to get at bolts on top and the one on the bottom.

Quick question. There seems to be a left and right side of the lower shock. Which end is which? Does it matter? I already removed both and didn't realize which side is which
