    New Shock Absorber from 1AAuto.com 1aau.to/ia/1ASH...
    Shock absorbers help your vehicle stay stable and safe. Signs of worn out shocks are knocking or bumping noises, loose handling, or a bouncy or bumpy ride. The typical service life of a shock absorber is 50,000 miles, depending on conditions. TRQ shocks and struts are engineered to fit your vehicle perfectly. This video shows you how to install shock absorbers on your 2015-20 Kia Sorento.

    When re-installing shocks LUBRICATE the mounting bolts to prevent corrosion for the next guy!
    Thank you for the instruction video, now I know what to do on my 2014 Sorento ,The rusted on lower inner sleeves can also be removed by grinding a slot and attacking with a large screw driver
    to expand them and get them to slide off, CLEAN off the rust prior to installing new shocks!

    I found this video looking for help geting that same siezed lower sleeve to come off. After watching what it took, I decided to put it all back together and send it to a professional.

    Another fantastic video by this great company. My only question, no access to a lift so would be doing the front and rear in my garage. What is the optimum place to jack the car up for the front and rear 2015 Kia Sorrento AWD and then put the jack stands for support? Thanks

    I installed the shock absorbers but didn't charge them first. Should I remove them and charge them or is the month+ of driving fine?

    So with all the problems getting the old sleeves off the mount studs, why wouldn't u never seize the surfaces to eliminate future seizures!?

    A very nice video but the installation does not match my 2015 kia sportage both ends of the shock are different.

      +Richard Scianimanico Thanks for watching! This video is for a 2010-2015 Kia Sorento, not a Sportage, so the installation might be different.
