#15734, "Bad shock Help!!!!"


          

I pulled off my drivers side rear wheel and noticed oil all over the shock. I then pulled off the passengers side tire and that shock was fine.

I have'nt realy noticed any nosies or anything. Is this something I should worry about?

If I decide to replace the shock should I replace both rear shocks?

nothing too bad, it can eventually seize up or come apart they aren't that expensive u should replace both shocks but dont ahve to, might as well save for some aftermarket ones that are adjustable =P

there is a group buy for them in the annoucements section..

if u just liek the stock fell u can get something OEM or stock replacement for about 20-30$ per strut usually...

You can have it cheap, fast or good. Pick any two.

If you want it cheap and fast, it's not going to be good.

Yeha like motofoo said you dont have to replace both but I would suggest buying a used shock until you decide on aftermarkets struts.You can get a used one for dirt cheap from guys parting out there cars on here or dsmtuners and dsmtraders.
