10 mm 12 point

The lower bolts are 10mm, 12point. If you disconnect the upper mount first you can cmpress the shock and 'swing' it to a verticle position and the lower bolts wil have interferance free access. Always replace in pairs!! do NOT install gabrials, they suck. easy job, about 15 minutes per side. LOL.
Oops this is for the front shocks, the rear shocks are very easy also and straight forward. You need to remove the rear seat back.
