Does anyone have a How-to pics or online manual for replacing rear shocks?

Any recommendations on brand name shocks? Monroe? Blistein? Rancho?
My car is used for mosty highway driving but I want the smoothest/noise free ride possible.

Bolt 'em on and off, look at the set up very straight forward, stay away from Monroe imho, your choice for a regular or off road but don't upset the balance of the ft to rear with a different design rear shock.

Just did mine two days ago.

I believe the top two bolts are 13mm, and the big bottom one is a 21mm socket.

Remove the top two bolts and then put a wrench or adjustable on the bolt of the bottom one and remove the nut and the washer. Hold the shock, Push out the bolt and the shock will drop out.

Keep the line keeping the new shock compressed.

Now, put the new shock in, and insert the two top bolts and tighten them loosely.

Now while holding the bottom tube of the shock cut the line holding it compressed and slowly allow the lower portion of the shock to pass through the lower bolting area. When it passes through have the bolt handy to slip it in.

With the lower bolt all the way in go and tighten the top bolts firmly at 22ft/lbs.

Then with a wrench on the bolt end put on the washer and tighten the lower nut to 73ft/lbs.

You are done.

Now with the
