I used an electric impact gun. It spins it faster than the shock can rotate so actually tightens it

It spins it faster than the shock can rotate so actually tightens it Edit: if you dont have impact gun, i would tighten it the best you can, then slowly drive it to a shop that does have an air gun. then just take the right socket with you. Just make sure its not too tight. |
