Shock install
I bought some rear shocks today. I got a pair of Monro Sensatrac shocks for the rear. Anyone got any experience with these shocks? If so how do is the ride, good hamdling, comfortable ride? This is my first shock install. Can someone tell me the locations of the bolts I will need to get to.

As Jeff said you need to pull back your rear carpet a bit to expose the top shock mount. I go from inside the car and sit in the back seat. For 4th gens you can lean under the hatch and do it. Anywhoo, pull off the foam triangle thingys and you will see the bolts. You will need to use a pair of vice grips on the stock shock shaft to keep it from spinning while you take off the nut. Since you are not changing the springs you can just lift the rear of the car by the rear end pumpkin and pull the shocks out once you take off the lower and upper bolts.
