To work on models which were produced between 1999 and 2005, start by pulling out the
Shock Absorber/coil spring assembly of the car in question, which must be fixed in a wood-lined vise or rags to avoid damaging the part. To ensure that all force has been removed from the upper spring seat, the use of a spring compressor can be done or the spring can be shaken to check that batter is loose. Loosen and take out the damper shaft nut while applying the locking pliers at the end of the shaft, after which, the mounting bracket, the dust cover, and the spring seat should be removed all, and kept systematically. Remove the compressed spring from the assembly carefully and put it aside along with the rubber bumper if any and inspect the lower insulator for the signs of wear or damage. To install, position the coil spring above the lower insulator, followed by fitting the upper insulator, spring seat, caring about their axiom, tighten the damper nut before withdrawing the spring compressor tool and finally replace the shock absorber/spring. Beginning with the models manufactured after the year 2006, begin by providing adequate audience to the rear wheel lug nuts, lifting the vehicle on sure shot jackstands and finally removing the said wheel. Supporting of lower
Control Arm with the help of floor jack to avoid any movement then disconnected the lower end of the shock absorber from the hub carrier and disconnected the outer part of the lower control arm. Slowly lower the jack until the spring can be unplugged from its seats and then pull the spring away. The removal process is done in the reverse order of installation, and in addition, the analyst ensures that the outer end of the lower control arm of the car is raised with the help of the floor jack in order to set or restore the normal ride height of the car before tightening the nut of the lower control arm-to-hub carrier bolt.
