Chock the vehicle front wheels to avoid its unintentional displacement.

More precautions are to be observed to lift a laden vehicle.

3

Remove the nut (9) and the bolt (6) fastening the rear shock absorbers to the bottom brackets (4), right and left side respectively

To remove and install the rear shock absorbers, the vehicle must be raised and supported by the side rails so the rear axle can be moved as needed according to the jobs. The shock absorbers must be detached at the bottom fastening to prevent their normal stroke being exceeded and damaged when the vehicle is supported by the side rails.

Installing: Fasten the shock absorbers on the bottom brackets (4) with the bolts (6) and the new self-locking nuts (9) and, tighten the nuts to the specified torque.
