6. After-mounting shock absorber inspection

(a) After shock absorbers are mounted on your vehicle, drive your car on a poor road for approx.
10km and then stop to touch surfaces of shock absorbers. If there is a great temperature
difference between the two shock absorbers, it means resistances on them also differ greatly
and the one of lower temperature has smaller resistance. If surface temperature of any one is
not above the air temperature, it means that the shock absorber has no resistance and is out
of action, and then you should replace it with a new one.
7. Removing right front shock absorber

Tip:

Follow the same removal steps for left front shock absorber to remove right front shock absorber.
