I have a 2014 Sentra as well. It has the exact same issue. Thank you for the video ✌️

The washer goes on first then Bushing.

Magically, this happened to me last week. My brother recommended me to replace both rears so going to do that. Does it require an alignment after the replacement? I'm assuming no because its not connected to the wheels like coilovers are.

[@georgeparker555]

The shocks have no impact on ride height therefore you would not need an alignment.

[@AFatherToTheFatherless]

It does affect ride height: it's a shock. But no, an alignment isn't required

[@georgeparker555]

@@AFatherToTheFatherless no a shock does NOT affect ride that’s why an alignment isn’t required and that’s what the springs are for

[@AFatherToTheFatherless]

@@georgeparker555 you're joking. When a shock goes bad, can the car sink to one side?

[@georgeparker555]

@@AFatherToTheFatherless no but a broken spring can.

By any chance do you know the torque specs of those bolts?

[@georgeparker555]

I don't have the official torque specs but just be sure to tighten everything by hand when the car is on the ground. Just get it nice and snug don't have to get too crazy with it

[@Spiritual_DriverAE101]

@@lamuelwilliams8842 I did it in a directional way. The outside bottom bushings pointing upward with the metal washer also pointing the same direction. And the inside top bushings downward with the metal bushing same direction and the nut pushing it down. And there was no problemo. (The bushings on my kit aren’t pre installed). Got a Chinese name brand hope they last a while

[@lrose3746]

You put the bushings on wrong and it's very misleading. It was mentioned in a previous comment so why not add a correction to your video?

[@beethao9380]

or pin the comment so people can see it right away.

[@chuckc3665]

did not even show how to do the top bolt

[@michaeldavidloving9411]

Damn son. Straight ripped the cover off you ain't had to do that 😮

[@georgeparker555]

It’s not broken 🤷‍♂️
