Make absolutely sure whoever does the work Loctite's the front bottom bolts!

If not, you'll run the chance that several of us here have experienced. If the bolt comes out, you'll hear a knocking sound upon compression of the shock, similar to a bad ball joint. Once you get under there, the bottom of the shock will be all scraped up from hitting the lower control arm, and you'll probably be ordering a new bolt/washer to replace it, and I've found that they don't keep them in stock at the local dealerships! It doesn't hurt anything to use Loctite on the bolt, just make sure its the red Loctite for maximum strength!
