Default just make sure you aren't pulling on the joint...

what i would do is do the top completly and then do the bottom.

Default eh, I just broke the cover for the front shock

I broke one of the 2 nuts loose that are built into that thing. I'll see if I can get the nut back in with the weigh of the car psuhing up on that nut. Otherwise I'll have to get a replacement. So far I've found that my low side rear shock was WAY softer than my higher side. And the lower side bump stop was shredded. The front shocks rebould like the bad rear one. They react like a low pressure shock when the good rear one rebound quickly. We'll see how things are once I get this last corner back on, but the low pressure shocks feel kind of like the bad bilsteins I just removed. I'm skeptical the car is going to be much better than my previous setup, but I'm eager to find out.
