If special camber adjusting bolts have been installed sometime in the past, have the front end alignment checked and, if necessary, adjusted.

Mount the strut clevis bracket portion of the strut assembly in a vise, being careful not to clamp any other portion of the strut assembly. Install the spring compressor on the spring and compress it sufficiently to relieve all pressure from the upper spring seat. While holding the damper shaft from turning, loosen the shaft nut with a socket. Remove the nut and suspension support, inspecting the bearing and rubber portion for any issues. Remove the upper spring seat and dust boot from the damper shaft, as well as the rubber bumper. Carefully lift the compressed spring from the assembly and set it in a safe place, making sure to mark it for reinstallation.

To install the shock absorber, reverse the removal procedure. Tighten the upper mounting bolt nut to the specified torque. Raise the rear axle with the jack to simulate normal ride height and tighten the lower mounting bolt/nut to the specified torque.
