Anyway, if others have this issue, they will rotate if you get something in the bottom where the bolt goes, but may take more brute force than feels comfortable at first.

I'd double check that the top nuts on both shocks are properly torqued after that. It's possible that you unscrewed them some as you rotated the shock.
