Termi rear header removal issue

[ducman82]

 2008 S4RS , Rear header is a BEAR to get out. i have no idea how they got it in. SO, i tried removing the ride adjuster rod, and that did not work, so now i can't get that bolt lined back up.

how hard is it to remove the rear shock assembly? can i just remove the top pivot to scoot the whole thing back the 1/8th of an inch i need to get that headers out? or is it all under some kind of pre load? or can i just move the upper pivot bolt?
