Have the front end alignment checked, and if necessary, adjusted.

Subsequently, remove the upper mount, spring, boot, bump stop, and lower spring seat.

The initial steps include loosening the wheel lug nuts, raising the vehicle, and securely supporting it on jack stands while ensuring the front wheels are blocked to prevent rolling. The wheel also needs to be removed for access to the suspension components.

During the installation process, it should be ensured that the lower seat is correctly positioned, the spring is placed with the lower end no more than 0.39 inches away from the step in the lower spring seat, and the jack is raised to secure the components. In all-wheel drive models, the drive axle should be placed back into the hub, seated properly, and the nuts should be tightened to the specified torque.

Examine all components for wear or damage, replacing them as necessary. Check the shock for fluid leakage, inspect the piston rod for pitting, and assess the shock body for damage.

Check the shock body for leaking fluid, dents, cracks, and other obvious damage that would warrant replacement. Check the coil spring for chips or cracks in the spring coating. Inspect the spring seat for cuts, hardness, and general deterioration.
