    I just replaced all tie rods, all shock absorbers and brake pads. I wasn’t too sure on the tie rods and shocks but your videos clarified a lot and you didn’t excessively talk and play dumb background music. Just wanted to say thanks.

  • @davidhosner7379
    @davidhosner7379 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Don’t forget to put the shaft bushing/spacer between the rubber bushings on the top shaft. If ya don’t , the shock will bounce around in the upper mount!!!!!!

    • @backyardchevy328
      @backyardchevy328  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It depends on the shock and the bushings it uses..the ones i used dont require those

    Good job explaining,
    Would like to ask MONROE SHOCKS
    WHY IN THE HELL THEY DON'T PROVIDE
    A LOCK NUT SO IT WILL NEVER COME OFF-UNLESS YOU TAKE IT OFF?

    • @backyardchevy328
      @backyardchevy328  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you🙂...not sure, some shocks come with double nut and others with lock nuts..but i would expect a more well known brand like monroe to include locknuts

  • @MrBurleyfish
    @MrBurleyfish 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I skip method 1 and 2 when it comes to the top nut I prefer method 3 is just "cut it off" 😉 You took off the tire.... why all the extra work geeshhh could swear they recommend leaving tire on and not jacking it up. Just get a couple heavy cable ties or tie wire compress the shock then strap or wire it so it will not open back up then bolt the bottom of the shock clip the wire or strap aa you direct the top of the shock trough the hole as it opens. Very simple and saves tons of time but ofc you will need a grinder or sawzall for cutting.

    • @backyardchevy328
      @backyardchevy328  4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Lol yea i guess cutting things can work but not my preferred go to if the parts come off...now if theyre rusted or stripped then i may cut em...if i left wheel on..i wouldn't be able to get good camera angles🙂

    Most instructions I have *read* say to leave the tires on. Did you feel it couldn't be done without the tires off?

    • @backyardchevy328
      @backyardchevy328  4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      It can be done, but for video purposes i took the wheels off...gives better angles on the bolts and what im doing.

      I did a leveling kit on a 01 a 5lb sledge and shit loads of pb blaster wasn’t enough, I had to use a pneumatic air hammer hitting the bar out of the key. I also hit on the torsion bar with the 5lb sledge while using the air hammer and that’s finally what busted it free. One side came apart easy the last side turned into a project

      Its the same as the 4wd version and i believe the 1500hd...but theres certain ones that have 2 smaller bolts on the lower mount..ud have to peek under to see the design of the shock..if it looks the same then yes.
