Want to replace my shocks and while the rear ones don't look too tough I'm not sure how to remove the front ones. Do they come out thru the top once the nut is removed or does the tripod bracket which holds them in place have to be removed? Also does the air intake need to be removed on the passenger side and does the brake cylinder have to be removed on drivers side? Any advice to simplfy this would be much appreciated.

 

You don't have to remove the airbox or the master cylinder.

You will have to remove the shock towers, but it is not a big deal. You can have the rears done in 10-15 minutes and the fronts in about 20-30 minutes by yourself.

 

Thanks appreciate the help

 

Drivers side can be a little tight, watch out for all those electrical connectors, the Injector Pump and related lines.
