I bought a set of 4 left hand drills just for that occasion - although I'm
in no hurry to try them out. ;-) But it's just a matter of time.

Dimitri,
Been there done that have the t-shirt. Don't worry, this kind of
twist-off is the best kind and usually easy to remove. When I started
to drill a hole in the center of mine for the easy-out, it started to
move in the hole. Using a punch on the outer edge, at a ridge resulting
from the twist-off, I was able to make it turn lefty-lucy so that it
came out of the hole, and then I re-used one of the old screws.
At least give it a try, it may come right out.

Rubber bushings are now the least of my worries. I over torqued one of
the lower mounting bolts and it sheared in the lower control arm hole.
Yes, I am a dumba$$ thank you. Off to my mechanic it goes.

Well I got front shock off and now not sure about reinstallation.
New bilstein has rubber bushings on top and one below tower. The one
below is inside the rubber skirt/sleeve thing but the new shock is not
pre-assembled with the lower bushing inside the rubber sleeve. Can I
just put both above the tower or should I do otherwise?
