What is your question?
I would like to do this myself. I recently lost my job and can get the parts wholesale. I did this years ago on other vehicles. Is this something I can do? Thank you

Here are the instructions, it sounds pretty straight forward. Be careful and make sure to block the wheels and use jack stands. Removal & Installation 1. Before servicing the vehicle, refer to the Precautions section. 2. Remove wheel. 3. Remove bolt in lower side of shock absorber assembly. 4. Remove mounting seal bracket nuts from shock absorber upper side and remove shock absorber assembly from vehicle. 5. Installation is the reverse of removal. Perform final tightening of shock absorber lower side (rubber bushing) under unladen conditions with tires on level ground.
dude it takes just 5 minutes to change them just take the 2 top nuts off and the bottom one and that's it replace the front ones are the tricky ones !! good luck
How do I get to the upper nut on the shock. Do I have to remove the back seat?
hey Pablo, This is where experience comes in. I personally don't have experience with this repair, so I would have to see the vehicle to determine what to do, and that is where my mechanical experience comes in. Look at this as a challenge, or a puzzle and figure out what tool will fit, or remove the seat to get better access to the upper retaining nut. Good luck, sorry I don't have more info for you.
