Rear Shock Absorber Replacement

Model: RAM 1500 BE, MK 2, BR - Years 1994-2001
Part: Shocks

Replacing the rear shock absorber is a very simple task and does not require special tools (such as spring compressors).
Once you lift the vehicle on a lift, simply remove the bolts that secure the shock absorber to the frame and the rear axle; at this point, remove the old shock absorber and insert the new one, aligning the bushings and tightening the mounting bolts properly. For better stability, it is recommended to replace both shock absorbers, choosing a quality product, even if refurbished.
