2006 Dodge Magnum Shock Absorber Parts and Q&A
Q: How to Effectively Service and Repair a Shock Absorber on 2006 Dodge Magnum?
A: The first step is to lift and support the vehicle, then take off both the wheel mounting nuts and the tire and wheel. With an AWD model, secure the link ball joint stem to ensure you don't turn it. Then, remove the nut on the stabilizer link that's connected to the shock's clevis bracket and pull the clevis bracket off the shock assembly by removing the pinch bolt and nut. Should your RWD model have it, remove the front shock tower cap and unscrew the three nuts securing the shock tower to the shock assembly prior to lifting the vehicle and removing the wheel. After that, remove the link connecting the shock with the stabilizer, along with the cable connected to the wheel speed sensor. Remove the nut from the upper ball joint stud and then use Special Tool 9360 to take the stud off the knuckle. Lift the car and take off the shock assembly. Place the shock Spring Compressor tool over the coil spring. Once Or #6 is compressed, you can work on taking off the shock shaft nut. Take out the coil spring and look at all the parts, changing any that are damaged. To put the coil spring in position, first, put it in the compressor, then put the upper and lower isolators on the shock body and finish with the jounce bumper. Install the shock at the coil spring, making sure it sits correctly and then clamp it in place. After tightening the shock shaft retaining nut to 90 Nm, unwind the coil spring and take the shock out of the compressor carefully. Set the shock assembly into the shock tower and lock it with three nuts tightened to 27 Nm torque. For an AWD vehicle, place the clevis bracket on the shock, hold it in place with a pinch bolt and nut and attach it to the lower control arm. Secure the pinch bolt to 61 Nm torque, close the stabilizer link and screw the nut in tightly to 128 Nm torque. Make sure to install the shock assembly backwards on RWD, ensuring the upper ball joint stud is secure after tightening the nut to 47 Nm plus 90° when the stud is in its longest position. After that, slide in the tire and wheel, secure the wheel nuts with a torque of 150 Nm, let the lift down and finish by attaching the shock assembly to the shock tower.
