Any tips for installing shocks......
I just bought Lakewood rear shocks. Is the installation pretty straightforward. I already installed struts.

If you already installed the struts yourself,then the rears will be a piece of cake.I unbolted the shocks from the inside first,then jacked up the car with a floor jack on each side so you can do both at the same time.Then just unbolt the bottom shock bolts and re-install new shocks.Simple as that.You might have to tap the bottom out with a hammer just slightly.But other than that,you shouldn't have any problems.
