Remove rear shock absorber hyundai ix20

[@bunti67]

Found your Video, an hour to late. I don't know what genius engineer, got this idea for this mounting mechanism. Tried to change the Bumper in the backyard. Not possible. Next week in will destroy the bolds an cut open the the metall box an change everything. No wonder the hyundai car dealer wanted 900€ for the "simple" change of the rear bumper.

@@mechanicallymindedmike9677 The worst. I wrote an articel in the german hyundai forum, to warn everybody. I asked another hyundai dealer and they told me, that their typical procedurce is to destroy the metal cover of then the nut, if it didn´t worked initialy with the impact wrench.

@@mechanicallymindedmike9677 Just to be on the safe side. The lower nut also fits on the upper bolt, right? I have just ordered the new bolts for the top and the nuts for the bottom from Hyundai. Two bolts and four nuts together cost €85 in Germany. Here are the part numbers: bolts 55395A and for the nuts 54659.

I was able to reuse that aluminium square bolt. Didn't think to try the nut itself. Tysm for sharing the information. It'll help others tremendously

So. I finally got it done. The Nuts work for both. So before you start. Just purchase Two Bolts and four Nuts with the Partnumbers i wrote before.
