What are the steps to replace a car shock absorber?

[MacPaul]

The steps to replace a car shock absorber are: 1. Open the engine hood and remove the screws fixing the top of the shock absorber; 2. Remove the tire; 3. Remove the small tie rod of the stabilizer bar that fixes the shock absorber; 4. Remove other screws fixing the shock absorber and other components on the shock absorber, such as the brake oil pipe and ABS sensor. At this point, the shock absorber can be taken off the vehicle; 5. Separate the shock absorber and spring, clean the surface of the spring, install the new shock absorber, and finally install the assembled shock absorber back onto the vehicle body. The shock absorber is a vulnerable part during the use of a car. The performance of the shock absorber directly affects the driving smoothness and the lifespan of other components. Therefore, it is essential to keep the shock absorber in good working condition.
