2017 Rear Shocks


Recommended Posts

Failed vehicle inspection due to "leaking" rear shocks.  Shop wanted $700 to replace both.

Nope. 

DIY and casual 4 hours later, replaced both shocks (using TRQs), rotated tires, and cleaned the HVB filter/screen behind passenger-side rear wheel tub while "in there"; screen was clogged and read that can reduce HVB charge.  

Shocks were slow to remove and reinstall/retorque the bottom bolts (given limited/tight access) and went ahead and replaced both upper shock brackets as well although both looked fine.

 

Not bad overall for $200.
