shock replacement
So i went to go replace the shocks on the 72 and i noticed on the lower mount of the shock, the metal sleeve within the bushing was too long, then i notice that there are several sizes of metal sleeves in the box, anyone ever change these out and have any advice on how to do it?

If anyone has this problem here is a short video that shows removing the bushing that the metal sleeve is in. Not too complicated now that i know
