How to Properly Install and Service a Shock Absorber on a 4X2 on Dodge Ram 1500?

Before you start, either change the shock nut in the upper shock mount or use Mopar Lock 'N Seal or Loctite 242. First, set the lower retainer and grommet on the shock absorber stud and after that slip the shock absorber through the bracket hole in the frame. After that, insert the lower bolts and tighten them to a force of 35 Nm (25 ft. lbs.). Follow this by putting on the upper grommet, retainer piece and choice of new nut or old nut, tightening the nut with wrench 9362 to 54 Nm (40 ft. lbs.). Remove the support equipment from the lower control arm outside end and lower the vehicle once lifted.

How to Properly Remove and Service a Shock Absorber on Dodge Ram 1500?

Before servicing or repairing the shock absorber, lift the vehicle and give support to the axle. Notice that the upper shock mount at the back relies on a flag nut, so don't use an air tool; stick to a wrench to turn the shock bolt. Then, unbolt the upper shock bolt and nut (1) first and after that unbolt the lower shock bolt and nut. Removal of the rear shock absorber (3) is the final step of this process.

The Shock Absorber of Dodge Ram 1500 vehicles help to raise and maintain suspension systems to take shock impulses and dampening to help the car ride and handle better. As with springs, shock absorbers operate in tandem to prevent over-indulgence of the suspension by changing kinetic energy to heat; hydraulic pistons are used to accomplish this. Since then a number of shock absorber designs have been fitted on Ram 1500 vehicles which include twin-tube and mono-tube both of which work in different ways to regulate the hydraulic fluid in order to achieve a better shock absorbing performance in various conditions. Current smart features including Position Sensitive Damping (PSD) and Acceleration Sensitive Damping (ASD) take shock absorber responses to the next level in accordance with intensities prevailing during certain driving conditions, whereas electrorheological and magnetorheological dampers are used to offered semi-active and adaptive suspension systems offering more comfort at designed control.
