Shock absorber check

Check the shock absorber for any signs of fluid leaks. If a leak is found, then the shock absorber is damaged and needs to be replaced

Warning: Shock absorbers must be changed in pairs on the same axle.

The effectiveness of the shock absorber is also tested by pressing on the corner of the body and releasing it abruptly. The body should return to its original position after it is released. If the body rises above its original position and continues to sway, it is likely that the shock absorber located on this side is out of order and must be replaced. Also check the shock absorber mount for wear.
