Default Front Shocks Lower Bolts Spin/broke?
When trying to remove the lower bolts on the front shock I got them halfway off then they snapped and spin free now. Did they break off the lower arm? Does that mean I need to replace the lower arm now too?

on most s-10"s on certin year's they use clip nut's that slide on to the control arm ,you may have to cut the head off the bolt with a air impact chisel or grinder .
