Replacing Struts/Springs 2013 PPV
Re: Replacing Struts/Springs 2013 PPV
Anybody got a guide for the Rear Shocks? That Impala video I posted wasn't helpful.

Here's a Craigslist video covering the Aussie WM Caprice. You might also check Pontiac G8 rear strut replacement. Both are very similar to what we have for 2011-2013. The WN Commodore or Chevrolet SS will also serve for the 2014-2017 cars.

One helpful tip for the rear shocks. The shocks sit at a bit of an angle to fit properly back after replacing the coils.
I used the level app on my iphone, layed the mount plate flat and measured it at 12 degrees.
The reason I know this is because I couldn't re-install the first one because I lined up everything perfectly straight.
Good luck everybody!
