M1009 Drivers side rear shock

[L.Gaston]

I have been slaving for several hour on this shock. There is very little space between the mount and the fuel tank, the mount and the bed floor, and the mount and the exhaust. I am open to any and all suggestion for how to go about getting this one off. I have tried an impact gun, 1/2 inch drive breaker bars, 3/4 inch drive breaker bars, and a lot of cursing, but all to no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I replaced the other 3 shocks with no problems.
