When should the car shock absorber assembly be replaced? Bounce test: Press down the car at the front or back corner of the car and quickly release it.

Detected kilometers: 20,000 kilometers regularly check the shock absorber, 80,000 kilometers recommend to replace the shock absorber, 100,000 kilometers must replace the shock absorber. Tire friction: A damaged shock absorber will cause abnormal grooves on the tire surface and uneven wear. The shock absorber should be replaced.

Step 2: Jack up Vehicle and Use Jack Stands for Safety & Remove the Tire from the Rotor. Step 3: Wheel Alignment Is Necessary After Strut Replacement. Marking the Position of All the Bolts Will Help Keep the Alignment Close to Original and save Time Aligning. Use a Colored Pencil to Mark the Old Strut on the Bolt. Step 4: Use Penetrating Oil (Such As Wd40) to Coat Any Rusted Fasteners, Let Soak for Approximately 1 Hour. Step 5: (Optional) While Waiting for Oil to Soak, Take This Time to Inspect All Other Components That May Need Replacement (Brake Pads, Rotors, Brake Hoses, Ball Joints, Cv Boots, Tie Rod Ends, Bushings, Sway Bars, Etc).

Step 14: Replace the Tire the Rotor and Tighten to Manufacturers Torque Specifications. Step 15: Slowly Lower the Vehicle down After Removing the Jack Stands. Pay Very Close Attention to Any Odd Sounds When the Vehicle Is Lowered Onto the New Complete Strut Assemblies.
