Default Siezed Rear D2s ! >:(

The bottom of the shock which you turn to adjust the height on my rear Gen1 D2s are siezed, we couldnt get em to budge, so I put em in to see what theyd be like but **** they are set high. Anyone run into this problem and got any ideas on what to use to get them free? Have been suggested to soak them in a bucket of diesel when I take them out next

Soak it in PB Blaster, and hope for the best. About 95 percent I would say of lower mounts that get stuck are impossible to remove without cutting them of.
