I sheared the passenger side lower shock mounting stud. It is part of a suspension arm, welded or pressed I think.
I'm putting a set of Bilsteins on my 97 XLT 4.0. the problem is the nut was very rusty and my impact wrench sheared the shaft of the mount right where it attached to the rusted nut so the shock is still mounted up but no nut to hold it on.
How can I replace this mounting stud?
Also how do I access the top nut, the heater is in the way?
