Installation
Remove rubber buffer and washer. Press out mounting bush from lower wish bone using Service Tool (JD 135). Fit new mounting bush to lower wishbone. Fit new buffer and washer to new shock absorber. Manually compress shock absorber and fit assembly to vehicle. To complete installation, reverse removal procedure.
