Why does ever video of a 99 chevy silverado have front spring with shocks but my 99 chevy only has shock should I look into springs 1999 chevy silverado 5.3 vortec 4x4 ?

[@jdh023]

Loved knowing what tools I needed prior. I actually wrote that down then gathered them and the job went MUCH quicker than I thought. GOOD JOB.

[@jefflindsey4699]

Good solid video, I like the safety awareness, a lot of people leave that out. Might recommend spraying everything with anti-seize ahead of time.

[@donaldgirome5286]

Glad I watched. I was going to purchase spring compression clamps to do the job. Nice to know I do not have to. Thanks for the great video !!

[@mayeri3083]

Why would someone put a dislike? a beautiful video?

[@TheMcdrewb]

Really? He didn’t show how to remove the shock!!! Unbelievable what a bunch of trolls wasting peoples time! First timers wanna are the process sorry for freaking out...🖖

[@jaimer66]

Totally missed showing the actual removal of the front shocks. Are “you” serious? 😂😂😂

[@aliramirez6064]

Would have been nice to see the front shocks removed. Other than that good info bud.

[@joecruz9981]

I appreciate all the safety tips.

[@reid1boys]

You should have showed you removing those fronts. They need to line up perfectly and the right angle or they will not juts slide right out. Took me a bit to figure it out. Words of advice... I sprayed all bolts and nuts front and rear the day before I did this job, and it was a piece of cake removing all bolts and nuts. Tops were cake. I used an impact on the top 2nd nut and didnt even need to hold the shock from below. Came off like a hot knife through butter.

Part # on front shocks

[@guitarguy3221]

Which way do the front shocks face when reinstalling?? The bolt mounting plate on the bottom is angled & I've seen a vid of a guy putting it in against that angle. My bilsteins did not come with that instruction

[@BDiHaze]

Thanks A Lot! Got me wanting to keep all this dough the shop trying to charge me and DIY it! What you say are the best shocks & struts to get for my '07 Silverado 1500? Then what site would you recommend to get them from? Please provide links, if possible. Thanks much!

[@FalconsGarage]

Ive been using KYB struts on my chevy for years ... cant go wrong with those. sorry dont have any links .. but I always use that brand for my trucks

[@natesnathan1]

The spring doesn’t need replaced?

[@abelvazquez6012]

Hello, Can't seem to find the bolts for the front shocks the two that go on the cross bar at the bottom of the shock mines need to be replace.

[@FalconsGarage]

Try dealer or junk yard

[@jamyers121]

I would have liked to see how you got the top nut loose. That one nut seems to be the hardest part. I have seen people cut them off due to being seized. Other than that thanks.

[@FalconsGarage]

I've never had one size on me that's why I didn't show it, but ill keep that in mind for the next video, Thanks!

[@tristanromero9667]

Tactical-Kydex-Gear heat it up with a torch

[@kylelaw7210]

If you jack the back of the truck up the right amount you don’t have to compress the rear shock.

[@Kephers7]

Same process for 2005 sierra 4x4. Also, I got a 6 inch lift :/ is it still the same? I gotta replace my cv joints, I was told with a lift id have to remove the struts as well. Is this correct?

[@FalconsGarage]

procedure is the same.. only issue might be your current lift.. depending on what kind you have.. but the cars are the same

[@Kephers7]

to be honest, i dont even know what kind it is. i bought it already lifted. So i got no clue. i just know its a 6 inch lift. gonna find out once i go to do it though.

[@الثورةالإسلامية-ف9ت]

hi bro is it same with yukon 2008 2wd ???? & which kind of shocks is the best ? plz need ur help

[@FalconsGarage]

yeah basicly same procedure konis are about the best out there

[@الثورةالإسلامية-ف9ت]

Falcon's Garage Thx bro But do u knw price of four shocks ?!

[@FalconsGarage]

well konis are the best out there there for not cheap! you cn also get some doorman Reflex .. those are a reasonably priced!

[@togodbetheglory9725]

sometimes when u try to say $$$ u end up paying more $$ i was doing nine & i ended up breaking the 2 bottom bolt. do u know how can i fix it to retread it or at least the size of the bolt.nine is a 95 gmc sierra 2500 it look just like the one in the video. any help i 'll appreciate it thanks

[@FalconsGarage]

you have two options, get a new lower control arm, OR you could nock off the nuts that are welded to the lower control arm and just put new bolts with nuts, (hope that makes sense)

[@Threedog1963]

This is 4 months old, but did you try a cutting torch ? If not, how did you fix? I'm about to do mine today.

[@slysimon8533]

What about the struts?

[@luispina2579]

That's a before and after

[@wildncrazyguytv]

Will this work on a 2005 4wd 5.3 Silverado 1500? Thanks!

[@FalconsGarage]

It would be close but not 100% the same because you have the front axles going to the front wheels

[@jamest3552]

Ok ok, turn some nuts already.
