#1: Rear Shocks Replace or not? Author: A10PSW, Posted: Thu Mar 07, 2013 9:54 am ---- Now that I have got my Axle off (bearings have gone) should I replace the REAR Shocks.
I fully retracted them both and one has not come back up at all and the other took about 30mins to come up.
Should they come up straight away?
They have been on the car for 7 years.

Way I see it, if the car isn't bouncing around like the MR SOFT advert, leave 'em.

#4: Re: Rear Shocks Replace or not? Author: A10PSW, Posted: Thu Mar 07, 2013 2:28 pm ---- So they should be ok to put back on?
