    Easy to Install-Great Ride

    Easy to Install-Great Ride

    Submitted 2013-06-07

    By Road to Damascus

    From Lawrenceville, Georgia

    I replaced the original rear shocks on a 1998 Toyota Sienna mini-van with these. Installation was easy. The location and orientation of the shock mounting hardware was such that I did not need to remove the rear wheels. I did use safety stands and wheel chocks in case the vehicle or parts thereof moved when the shocks were removed. No impact wrench was needed to remove the old shocks. I sprayed the old bolts and nuts with penetrating oil, waited a bit and removed them with regular wrenches and sockets. Of course, road salt is not commonly used here during the winters of the South, so corrosion is probably less than in areas where it is used. The resulting ride is excellent!

    Bottom Line recommended

    Appear to be straight forward installation. Shocks have great reputation amongst performance/restorer community. They will be installed on my `57 Chevy Belair in the next 3 month period as the restoration progresses.

    This shock is indeed shorter than original. This KYB shock come with a top and bottom bushing. The 1962 full size Chevrolet does not use a top bushing(washer and nut only) The monroe oe comes w/o top bushing. I discovered this after paying for new springs and paying to have them installed thinking that the springs were too long due to the KYB being fully extended and not working properly.. All i needed was the correct shocks
