Ford Transit rear shock replacement
Вставка

- just a quick walk through on how to replace the Transits rear shock absorbers, it's super simple I honestly didn't even know if it was worth the time but I figured since I did the front video might as well do the rear video
Keep the puns coming! And as a personal Transit owner that doesn’t want to pay shop fees when avoidable, your videos are gold. Thanks and keep them coming!
Thank you!
Loved the puns! Keep ‘em coming!
You're right, the video is almost not needed it's so simple. But I appreciate seeing it so I know I won't run into any unforeseen problems :--)
in the rust belt the upper shock bolts seize in the bushing sleeve if that happens i like to heat up the bushing sleeve a little then smack it through
I’m having that issue. Top bolts are stuck 🤨
No question that the upper bolts can be difficult to remove - mine showed just light corrosion, but would not budge. Solution was to place an oversize socket over the head of the bolt (so it has room into which to retract), then use a really large C-clamp to press out the bolt. A 2-person job: one holds the C-clamp in place, the other turns the screw.
Re-assemble with anti-seize on the bolts.
could you list the part number for the 3.2l extended high roof rear shock? I believe it is different from the base low roof
No fucking way bro im just starting at ford and im becoming the transit guy this is so crazy to find god bless lmfao
good thing you dont live in the north i got a transit with that top bolt stuck in the bushing i cant even move it with a half in breaker bar i am going to heat the piss out of in or i am going to have to cut it out with a sawall i tried pushing it with a air chisel
did you do it, I have same problem!
What did you end up doing?
i'm looking to upgrade FRONT braking system, rotors and pads on my 2018 transit 350, i would like to try something else other than Motorcraft mainly because they rust like there is no tomorrow, maybe something like "Raybestos, AcDelco, Wagner", if you or anyone reading this message has had to install/upgrade rotors and pads (other than Motorcraft) on a transit i would much appreciate you sharing your experience, for my line of work (hauling) i need semi metallic pads, ceramics are out of the question
Check out EBS Brakes, they make kits for the Transits.
The the bushings on these shocks be replaced instead of replacing the entire shock?
in theory yes but i have no idea where or how you would find them
How often do you change them? As needed, or a certain number of miles?
I replace them every 60k or when the paramedics start requesting chiropractic insurance whichever comes first
I was really about to pay a shop $130 to do this for me. I think I'm dumb.
you aren't dumb if you are busy and don't have the time that's money well spent. trust me time is my most expensive commodity these days.
