Appreciate the video, but this is why I do most of my own mechanics. Even the UA-cam videos are rough. No reason she had to bash that lower bolt in and bend the mount or cut off the old top bolt if spinning. No reason to jack up the diff either..... The top threads have a flat spot to put a second wrench so the shock does not spin when removing old bolt and the bottom of the shock can be compressed and moved into place by hand and the lower bolt slides right in. Just finished my install without removing spare tire with truck on the ground. Job took about an hour to complete outside with no shop in minus 5 degrees Celsius. Also did front struts a couple weeks back and both jobs are relatively easy if you modify/plan this project as you go along. 10 years ago I had a mechanic do the same 2 jobs and it was about a 1000 bucks. Front KYB struts where toast, but I do lots of off road driving. The rear Blistines from 10 years back were still pretty good, but changed them out anyway. Perfect backyard Covid19 project.
Valid points. I can’t believe she bent the bottom mount bracket lol
Thank you!! Much appreciated.
Watched video on front struts / DONE
Watched video on rear shocks / next week
Thanx

sue is the man! nice work!! even a tard like me can do this :)
Before you waste time with a torch, try using a Cresent wrench and a 14 mm wrench, and lots of patience
Geat video.
I found that a 12 inch metal blade in a saw all works great to cut off the top bolts to remove shocks. Be careful on driver side not to cut into the wire harness. Easy reach thru fender well
Very nice work
+Katherine Larracey Thanks for checking us out. 1aauto.com
Sawzall works great for that.
Sue rocks
The KYB shocks I have are similar but came with 3 washers instead of 2. Is there a different arrangement on the stud to put 3 washers on with 2 bushings?
How do you keep the strut from spinning while tightening?
Please include all tools needed. Just because you’re in the rust belt doesn’t mean we are. Would be helpful to have the wrench size for top shock mount nut.
What about 2005 sequioa rear ones and part number with air bags
If you have enough thread, you can add two stacked nuts on the top and leave enough gap for you to loosen the actual nut while keeping the stacked nuts tightened with a ratchet/wrench.
Had a ford sport track I could snap then right off they were that bad I'm hoping I don't need to cut them out lol I'm not wanting to get under it now
18v universal tool titanium blade 25 sec.
Do I necessarily need a car lift? Can I just use a floor jack? Thank you
You don’t need to jack it up for this job. You can, but it’s not necessary
Put some PB Blaster on those top nuts a few minutes before you take a wrench to them.
im guessing that stuck nut thing way up top can get some coca cola on it :) those usually come loose after being painted with coke :) and while i wait for it to bubble, i read the pamphlet from berkshire hathaway on being less white! ;) hahaha
mechanics hate this one trick! have sue do it! hahah
Rust everywhere WOW.
I love her accent.. 💖💖💖
With a Name like TONY im sure you do
Would a propane torch work to get the top nut off?
Nope. The acetylene torch was used to cut the mount, not to heat it up.
i enjoy a woman who can both bench press me and refit my entire differential ;)
How , the lady mechanic remplaze, rear shock for Toyota Sequoia, is different procces.
Thanks
+D DAY This procedure might be different for your application. We do not currently have a how-to video for this particular year, make and model. Thank you for asking! 1AAuto.com
Vise grip pliers for the top and a ratcheting 14mm wrench for the tower nut. You're welcome.
I don't know. Both of those tools seem useless when the shock mount is rusted out
If you haven't totally screwed up that nut? How do you get the shock from spinning. My chevys always had a spot where I could put a wrench underneath and hold it. I dont see anything like this on toyotas
Vice grips with a really strong grip if you have to tach weld the vice grips to the shock
Never had one to spin on any make or model, must be doing it wrong
I'd be more concerned with the rusty frame and shock mounts then the shocks
that was light rust for the salt belt
Typical Toyota junk
Why didn't you bolt the bottom first before you tighten the top nut? Wouldn't that be easier so you don't need to jackup the truck to fit the bolt through on the bottom.?
Or hammer the bolt through, damaging the mount and likely the bolt threads 🔩🔨😞
Theres a lot of wrong going on in this video but that would've been the sensible way
Put the bottom in first compress it and let it really to the top no jacking required cmon 1a auto
She is lucky the the 🚚 did not break in have on her.
