RE: [Chrysler300] KYB Shock Install Update

["'David Schwandt' finsruskw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [Chrysler300]" <Chrysler300-noreply@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well, I do not have a lift and both times mine leaked was when I raised one side, like you were going to change a tire.

Come to think of it, that’s exactly what I was doing.

Maybe on a lift, where you unloaded the springs both at the same time is different.

Sorry to have maybe unduly alarmed some folks.

So Dave,  if that's the case, just how are you supposed to raise the car on a lift?  Like to rotate tires or do brake work? I have a lift here, and KYBs on my 300G for at least 7 years.  No shock oil leaks that I see.

Dou, Ya just gotta pull it out while the shock is extending If I recall.

It’s just a plastic strap

Make sure you have it aimed at the hole on the tower.

On the rears, DO NOT jack up the car by the frame and let the rear end hang from the shocks!!

They will begin to leak! BTDT!! TWICE already

I have a question for the author of the KYB Shock Install Update.

After the wire is clipped, how do you remove it from on top of the rubber bushing that is now under pressure?
