What's this?

Follow up on rear suspension (picture)


The rear struts (shocks) are attached to the trailing arms by a nut/bolt, and attached to the frame by one nut on the top. You don't have to deal with the rear springs Basically you just have to remove two nuts, remove the shock, then reattach.

Once again, the only difficult part may be accessing the top nut, but it's probably not that difficult.

On the difficulty level, would put this in the same category as changing a wheel. Easy peazy.
