You can Select Your Vehicle to check if DG9Z-18124-D fits your vehicle.

Clean the boots with soap and water to prevent premature deterioration caused by oil and grease.

Guide the assembly up into the fenderwell, align the previously made matchmarks, and insert the upper mounting studs through the holes in the body. Install the new nuts so the assembly won't fall back through.

If the front suspension shock absorber/coil springs exhibit signs of wear (such as leaking fluid, loss of damping capability, sagging, or cracked coil springs), they should be disassembled and overhauled as necessary. The shock absorbers themselves cannot be serviced and should be replaced if faulty; the springs and related components can be replaced individually. To maintain balanced characteristics on both sides of the vehicle, the components on both sides should be replaced at the same time.

Support the rear lower control arm with a floor jack, then remove the upper control arm.
