# == # Step 1 Lift the truck with a floor jack, and support the Silverado with jack stands. If you have selectable ride, disconnect the electrical sensor. # Step 2 Use the ratchet to pull out the upper shock absorber nut and bolt. Unbolt the lower shock absorber nut and bolt. Remove the shocks. # Step 3 Align the new shocks and insert the lower nut and bolt, followed by the upper nut and bolt. Torque both to 70 ft-lb. # Step 4 Reconnect the electrical connector if you have selectable ride on the Silverado, and lower the truck from the jack stands.
It depends on how you use it.(fast or slow)
no
All Chevrolet Celebrity's use struts in the front. As information they use shocks in the rear suspension.
1991 mercury cougars use shocks and struts
Struts.
Shocks- some are air shocks. Shocked?
The Toyota Corolla All-Trac Wagon uses struts in the front end. Many Toyota vehicles use a front strut assembly unless otherwise noted.
All use strut / coil assemblies on the front. I think the station wagons use shocks (at least my 1987 Taurus wagon did IF I recall correctly). See "Related Questions" below for more
"Shocks"...The Taurus/Sables use McPherson struts on the front suspension - which is basically a shock/coil spring assembly.Rear suspension on the other hand... Station wagon models use a separate shock & coil spring design. Sedans use McPherson struts.Many people continue to use the two terms in describing the same thing.All this is intended to help sort out the sometimes very confusing terminology.See "Related Questions" below for specific instructions for front and rear shocks/struts.
1996 Explorers do not have front struts. They use torsion bars as springs that require special tools to remove and conventional shock absorbers that are easy to remove.
Same part number for front struts with or without springs (loaded).
That vehicle doesn't use struts. It uses regular shock absorbers on the front and rear.
(Licenced Technician) -- 1990 Mercury Grand Marquis does not use struts. It uses coil springs with separate shocks for the front and rear - except for some of the upscale trim Grand Marquis models, which run computer-controlled air suspension in the rear. Why are you wanting the "struts" changed? Are you having handling problems? Does the car sit low on one side? I have owned a 1991 Crown Vic and a 1989 Grand Marquis; front shocks are not really difficult (for me) to change; front coil springs are much more difficult. These cars were known for sometimes breaking coil springs. Unless you have a good solid garage floor, a couple of floor jacks, a complete set of line-up bars, and access to air tools, I would not recommend doing this job yourself. Hope this helps.
no,not truck shocks, but you can use spring helpers or you can order a lift kit for the front and for the rear you can get air shocks from your local parts supplier.
