Replace rear shocks

basist_4 · 09-14-2008, 08:44 PM

91 Sonoma ex-cab 2wd...my passenger side rear shock is leaking...

How hard is it to change the rear shock out by myself...is it as simple as it looks?
Is there anything I should be on the lookout for?
Any hints or helpful suggestions?

yes, only thing that could be a pain is if the bolt is rusted in there but thats it

Yes be careful if the bolts are rusted, make sure you soak them in WD40 or something similar because they can break, just like mine did when I was starting to do my shocks.

It's so easy you'll wonder why more people don't do it themselves.
