Default Front shock lower bolt
I have a Vogtland/Koni suspension setup, the only drawback is in order to adjust the shocks, you have to remove then from the car. My question is can I reverse the the lower bolt (nut toward the front)so I don't have to remove the rear lower control arm to get the bolt out?

Default Yes you can,
stealership did that to mine a while ago when they replaced a control arm under a recall. Makes it so much easier to remove the shock assembly.
