Hey gang,
I've been browsing the posts and see plenty of talk about replacing shocks and struts but I haven't found a step-by-step write-up on how to. I've never done it before and would like to do this myself and it seems it's certainly doable with the proper tools. Does anyone have a write-up they could share? Pics would be fantastic. If there is a link that can be shared that perhaps I'm overlooking, that would work equally as well.
The reason I think I need new shocks is because my trucks braking distance has increased. Also, the backend seems to be lower than it was. Not much but it doesn't have the typical slant you see on a truck. I have the '05 DC Limited 4x4 and it's stock. When I do the bounce test, seems pretty normal frankly and I don't see fluid leaking from the shocks but they it just doesn't seem to be riding as well and it's the only thing I can think of.
Thank you in advance!
