Come on it's like 6 bolts, and 10 screws for the rear struts, shouldn't take that long.

The act of changing it - no problem. Securing a space with air and a bench vice - not so much...

Well outside has air, and hand tools work, and a bench vice can be bought at Crappy Tire then returned "because it didn't work properly."

Using a rachet on the top nut is great way to trash a shock. Denied.

And what will I bolt it to? My couch?

Get a bike pump, and an air tank.

PFTTTTT take them to CT, and tell them if they don't help you for free you are going to use your teeth, and because they know about it they are liable.

Yes, or maybe the bumper of the car.

You now have all bases covered, and are expected to be there.

Electric impact is the best investment ever, and a bench is a good one too i would use the kitchen counter, table, or computer desk in a pinch.

Are your shocks that bad that you can't wait until after the meet? Mine are due to be changed since they're 23 years old now, but what the hell.
