Mount the shock absorber in a vise, gripping it by the lower mounting. Examine it for signs of fluid leakage. Test its operation by moving it through a full stroke and then through short strokes of two to four inches. The resistance should be smooth and continuous; if it is jerky or uneven, the shock absorber should be replaced.

After the strut assembly is completely disassembled, all components should be examined for wear and damage, and the bearing should be checked for smoothness of operation. Components should be replaced as necessary.
