The Armstrong front shocks attach to the subframe with, IIRC 4 bolts.   
To remove them, you disconnect the upper arm from the suspension, then  
remove the shock body from the car.

You then replace them with rebuilds that have a lifetime warranty and  
stop worrying about it.  When I asked Peter C what I should do to  
maintain the shocks I bought from him, the response was "nothing."

I think I had both replaced in one evening.
