Back Shock Replacement Jeep Grand Cherokee

2012-08-01
alright so here we are doing some night work on a 95 Jeep Grand Cherokee replacing the back shocks basically this this video will show how to replace the fingers on any Grand Cherokee from 92 to 98 I believe anyway so we start just by loosening the nuts now this is an 18 millimeter I believe the other side is a 15 you're twisting them off these ones are pretty rusted on there the one up here there's only one you got to worry about it's an 18 millimeter as well what I've done because these are rusty you can see this is I've taken my ratchet and I've also attached a wrench onto the end of it to kind of give more leverage so when I grab the wrench it kind of extends in my reach a little bit so I have more torque on the bolt works out pretty well I've already gotten it loosed up so that's what we're doing right now we're just releasing all the bolts as you can see this thing is pretty hashed it's all rusted up what you get for living in those southern states when I've done on the bottom here I've lined my 15 millimeter wrench up with that side and I'm just letting it rest against the ground so it'll do all my holding work for me and I can just press this forward and just keep on ratcheting it as the as the wrench holds the other side of the bolt steady right here you can see a considerable difference in quality of shock bonds brand-new many other ones just freakin rusted anyway besides the shock out of the vehicle I just got these little that head right there that sits in and then this little notch right here there it also sits in pretty pretty straightforward so when you're installing it it's relatively simply no the top part just because there's the sleeve on it think about it like as if water was running down it wouldn't go inside the sleeve the sleeve is here to protect it from you know being like a cup and holding the water up and down in it so as the car goes up and down it protects the whole whole shock anyway make sure the nut is on the inside of the vehicle facing away from the tire and the top has a washer on it as well so make sure the big washer goes inside of the nut that's let's say you install a shock on a Jeep Grand Cherokee probably one of the simpler shocks that I've done anyway I do throw up videos on YouTube every every week or so so if if this helped you make sure to LIKE and subscribe so one last look at these awesome shocks and they're the exact same on both sides so it's pretty simple to put on and off you
