When fitting new rear shocks, whats the best order to do it?
ie: releasing top section first or bottom first?
then fitting?
top or bottom first?
done fronts before but never the rears

Thanx

undo top nut whilst car is grounded then jack car up by the rear beam put axel stands under the car along the sills then undo bolts on bottom of shocks then slowly lower the jack an shocks can be removed easily axle stands should take weight of car and jack will hold the rear beam
