I also installed new Blistens on the front and the inside bolts were a pain
to unbolt and bolt, my 10mm socket would not fit because of the angel of the
shock.Used a box 10mm wrench with very little turning motions.
I recently found out that the fastener that I though was a Torx is actually a 12 point metric fastener. I'll bet the injection pump requires a 12 point metric bit, as well.

The trick for the shocks, which I also found out after the fact, is to compress the piston rod and rotate the shock outward as far as possible. Then the innser screw is readily accessible and you don't need to spend 30 minutes trying to get the damn thing to start and turn 10 times.
