So I got the lock ring off the other shock and used it to resist rotation while I tried to twist off the lower body. No luck… ughhhh

Going to keep it sitting with PB blaster and resort to the torch eventually if need be. Not in a rush to reassemble the rear though since the car is garages for winter.

Need to order another rear damper anyway since the top hat is fused on and I cannot replace the bump stop
