I like how the video is flipped at the end, making it look like the studs are reverse threaded when torquing. 10:06

I like the fact this presenter is using the better line up tools from Harbor Freight Tools. Not using tool truck branded tools but stuff you can generally get local to repair location. You don't need to get a M18 Fuel from Milwaukee. Just a simple electric impact, sockets, and torque wrench to do the job. Even the torque wrench could be loaned from a chain auto parts store too. Here is the crazy part. The repair center we use for vehicle repairs just quoted us $600 for new rear shocks installed. I just found the shocks for $60 a piece with free shipping. Having done shocks before in many vehicles, my jaw hit the ground on the robbery taking place. I found out they quote "Manufacturer OEM" which are $215 a piece for a freakin Hyundai! The fronts are even more insane at 350 a piece. Needless to say, this will be a driveway project as it is too pricey even with OEM equivalents and the actual time needed to replace. No special tools that cannot be had from the local auto parts store on loan.

Great video, this helped with my 2018 Kia Sorento. The top mount for the shock absorber does not seem to be a common design. It was very hard to find anything online explaining why the top part of the shock absorber looked like it was missing a part. I wanted to figure out what was up before I started taking my car apart. Thanks!

Can this be done using jack stands instead of a lift?
