I blew a hose on the reservoir for the back shock on my '04 polaris predator. And I wanted to remove the whole shock and resrevior to take it in to get a new hose and refill it with oil. My problem is I got the top and bottom nuts off the bolts that hold the shock on, but the bolts won't budge. The nuts turn but I can't get them to come out. Is there a secret to getting them off? (I have no suspension at all for the back shock.)

try lifting all the weight of the quad off the bolt what i mean is have someone lift the quad up with the grab bar then see if it comes out without all the weight on it

I jacked up the frame of the quad and had a friend lift up the grab bar slowly to where I found the spot to where the bolts were a little loose and I could get them out. They were still tight in there but just enough to get them out.
