I'm getting ready to replace the rear shocks on my 2002 Astro van. I have pretty good mechanical ability and have performed many repairs. I have never replaced the shocks on a vehicle. Is this very difficult?

Thanks,
D

Hi:
They arn't bad to do. There are two bolts and they come off.

Let me know if you run into trouble.
