Front Shock on Rear Suspension

audaveh · Jan 24, 2019

The bolts backed out and I lost the shaft and bushings that mount the front shock to the rails.

I have a new shaft, bushings and bolts put not sure the best way to install them.

The front shock has a boot around it so I can't use a spring compressor to compress the shock to line things back up to get the bolts in.

What's the easiest way to put it back together

Drop the skid out...

Replace parts...

Put skid back in tighten track back up

You should be able to back the lower spring retainer nut down with a large adjustable wrench. Once you get the spring loose, then it is a lot easier to get the shock on and off, without removing the suspension. Which is a pain in the butt.
