I just did my front shox piece of cake. How do I do the rears?
Do I just jack it and handle the same as the fronts or what? I appreciate any help!

Find the eyelet bolts…Unbolt bottom 1st then top, reverse to install. Piece o’ cake cool

[Edit] Yeah good point DR easier /wo since you won’t have to compress the shock as much. Funny thing is I just came in from changing my lower rear shock bushing & washers that got beat badly. Man they sure hang down low with that lower spring leaf bracket.

No need to even jack. Just get under there with a 17mm socket and take the old ones off and put the new ones on.

What he said. The fronts are the hard part. You're set.
