How to Replace Rear Shock Absorbers Ford F-150 V8 1997-2003 | EASY!

[@jptrustno1]

Nice how the struggling part was edited out to make the job seem soo easy to help make the sale of parts from these guys.

[@2carpros]

Yep, I'm definitely just here to make a sale lol I edit out me grunting and adjusting the camera or sometimes its my rude neighbors dog barking. Trust me you want none of that in the video.

Looks a heck of a lot easier than removing and disassembling the strut assemblies on a front wheel drive car 👌

[@2carpros]

Sure is larger which makes it easier. Thanks for watching!

[@TheCreedBratton]

i always recommend pumping the new shock a few times while off the car to prime it first

[@2carpros]

Why?

I dont have a car lift, only 4 ton floor jack, and a 4 ton bottle jack, whats the best way to lift and support the rear axle for easy shkck replacment

[@2carpros]

Lift up the rear end with the floor jack. Put jack stands under the frame toward the rear then lower the floor jack so the rear end is dangling freely. Thanks for watching Christian!

[@sadque74]

Do you recommend changing both side?

[@2carpros]

Yes, if you are replacing one side go ahead and replace the other. Thanks for watching!

Can i put two shocks with a long bolt and a extra hole on top??

[@2carpros]

I can only recommend using the shocks in the descriptions. Aftermarket stuff never goes well for me. Thanks for watching!

[@mechanicandskills7215]

at the top yes but what you going too do at the bottom ?

Should I lift it from the differential?

[@2carpros]

Yes right under it. Thanks for watching!

[@CS-bh4ur]

Dude I need to see how to do the tough one that driver side one

[@2carpros]

What? They are the same. I did the driver's side one the same day and it was exactly the same. Thanks for watching!
