Chevrolet Metro Shock Absorber Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How to replace the front shock absorber on Chevrolet Metro?A:To replace the front strut assembly, start by raising the front of the vehicle so that the front suspension hangs freely. Then, remove the front wheels and the clip retaining the brake line to the strut bracket using needle nose pliers. Next, remove the strut-to-knuckle nuts and bolts, as well as the nuts retaining the strut to the strut tower from under the hood. Carefully remove the strut assembly, being mindful of not damaging the outer CV joint boot or overextending the inner CV joint. Inspect the strut body for any leaking fluid, dents, cracks, or other damage that may require repair or replacement. Additionally, check the coil spring for chips and cracks in the coating, as this can lead to premature spring failure. Finally, inspect the spring seat for any damage, hardness, or general deterioration. To complete the installation, reverse the removal process.
