To disassemble the shock absorber assembly, start by removing it and reinstalling the clevis bracket. Clamp the shock absorber in a vise and compress the coil spring. Remove the damper rod nut, washer, upper control arm mounting bracket, and isolator bushings. Take off the upper and lower isolator bushings, sleeve, and upper spring isolator. Remove the washer, dust shield, compressed coil spring, jounce bumper, and sleeve. Inspect the shock absorber for rod binding and check the shock mount, upper spring seat/isolator, and coil spring for any damage. To assemble, reverse the steps. Install the sleeve on the shock absorber rod with the undercut side facing downward. Reinstall the top and bottom shock absorber rod bushings. Finally, install the shock absorber/coil spring assembly.

Connect the assembly to the upper control arm mount and install it into the shock tower. Align the locating pins and mounting holes and tighten the four bolts. Install the clevis on the shock absorber and tap it until properly aligned and fully seated against the locating tab. Install the bolt and tighten it. Install the clevis-to-lower control arm bolt without tightening it. Install the upper ball joint into the steering knuckle, tighten the castle nut, and install a new cotter pin. Install the speed control routing cable on the steering knuckle. Use a floor jack to raise the lower control arm to simulate normal ride height and tighten the shock absorber clevis-to-lower control arm bolt. Install the wheel and lug nuts, lower the vehicle, and tighten the lug nuts.

Guide the shock absorber into place, insert the upper mounting studs through the holes in the shock tower, and tighten the nuts. Connect the lower end of the shock absorber to the knuckle and tighten the bolt/nut. Install the wheels, lower the vehicle, and tighten the lug nuts. Finally, tighten the upper mounting nuts and install the cap.
