can u fix a front bumper shock

One of the front bumper shocks got smushed. It's now compressed all the way. Can it be pulled out or does it have to be replaced? If it can be pulled out, give me some suggestions on how to do it.

You shpould replace them, once they are compressed they loose their resistance. you cam however,pry it back out. try a pry bar or a light tug against a tree to the reinforcement. One it is pulled out they are easier to compress again if bumped.

Thanks, but I have already replaced it the front bumper shock. Maybe you should ask Pelican Parts if they want it because they are selling here for big bucks.

Do you have any seat switches?

I'll check on the seat switches and let you know. There's a pile of stuff left over from parting out an '81 last summer.
