Trig Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 you shouldnt need to take the wishbone off completely to change the shocks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesword22 Posted March 3, 2008 Author Share Posted March 3, 2008 cheers for the replys guys it is done no hassle once you look at it perspectively. to change the front shocks is a darn site easier to remove the two wishbone botls at teh back and then let it swing free. there done now anyway,. there are some of the easiest i have ever done. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edge Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 you only need to remove/loosen the top wishbones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 you only need to remove/loosen the top wishbones Yep, you dont need to remove the bottom wishbone at all. Knock out the long bolt that holds the top wishbone in place and pull the wishbone to one side, then remove the rear damper bolt that attaches to the lower arm, undo the 3 bolts on the top of the shock and push down hard on the lower arm and get someone to pull the shock out!

Ian C Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 It sounds like you removed the camber adjustment bolts... Did you put them back with the same degree markings set or did you just put them back...? -Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
