Afternoon, Phil,

I am currently replacing my rear shocks (1999 J100 VX) to repair the AHC function. Didn't want to lose that functionality. What a pain changing the shocks is! The suspension was fitted in the factory before the body was put on, so there is no space at the top of the shock to get to it. Normal procedure is to drill more holes in the body floor (in the right place) so you can get to the nuts on the top. 

How did you get on?
