Push the damper fork onto the bottom of the shock body. Install a new pinch-bolt but do not tighten it at this time.

Examine the shock for signs of fluid leakage. Check the piston rod for signs of pitting along its entire length, and check the shock body for signs of damage. Test the operation of the shock, while holding it in an upright position, by moving the piston through a full stroke, then through short strokes of 2 to 4 inches. In both cases, the resistance felt should be smooth and continuous. If the resistance is jerky or uneven, or if there is any visible sign of wear or damage, replacement is necessary.

Support the lower control arm with a floor jack positioned underneath the coil spring pocket.
