Hi Everyone,
I just replaced the rear shocks with new Arnott units I picked up for $63 for the pair.
My question is - is the car supposed to be on the ground like the front struts to ensure no bushing binding?
I did have the rear of the car raised, but also did support the lower control arms, so there was no pressure on the shock. I could easily move it around with the bolt very loose, before tightening it spec.
Wondering if the car should have been at ride height before torqueing the bolts?
