Question About the 15 Minute Rear Suspension Mod

Regarding the 15 minute rear suspension mod - when I remove the 17mm bolt and the stopper from either side and insert the new rubber thingy and the original rubber stopper, there now isn't enough of the bolt protruding for my socket to grasp. Does this mean that I have less slop than others, or am I doing something wrong? Don't know if it matters, but I have a 94.

Thanks.

Larry

Re: Question About the 15 Minute Rear Suspension Mod

Do them one at a time, the other side will hold the side that you're working on up. If that's what you're doing, then there is probably some flex that's letting the subframe drop down some. You could use a jack to hold the subframe up, so that you have enough threads exposed to get the nut started.
