If necessary, the fuel filler tube bolt may need to be loosened, and the filler tube moved aside for better access to the shock upper mounting bolts.

Remove the shock through the bottom of the spring and inspect all parts for damage. Install the parts on the new shock in the correct order. Install the washer and damper shaft nut, tightening it while holding the damper shaft with a wrench.

To reassemble the strut and spring assembly, you need to extend the damper rod and install the rubber bumper. Put the dust boot onto the damper and carefully place the coil spring onto the damper, aligning it with the reference marks made during disassembly. Install the upper spring isolator and seat, followed by the upper mount, and tighten the nut on the damper shaft. Loosen the coil spring compressor until the top coil is properly seated against the upper spring seat and upper mount. Finally, remove the tool from the coil spring and install the strut/spring assembly.

In the trunk, the two nuts that hold the shock absorber to the vehicle body should be removed.

If servicing both shocks, mark the parts as right and left.

Before starting any work, it is recommended to explore all options. The strut body cannot be serviced and must be replaced if there is a problem. However, complete strut assemblies with springs may be available on an exchange basis, which can save time and effort. It is important to check the cost and availability of parts before disassembling the vehicle.
