I am sure this has been covered somewhere, but I am having trouble locating the info. Is there a tutorial or instructions anywhere on how to change out both the front and rear shocks on a 67FB? I currently have the KYB Gas-Adjusts and am switching over to the Koni Classics and was hoping this was a simple project I could tackle with limited tools.

Thanks in advance!

 

A set of socket wrenches is all you really need. It's easier to do the front without jacking the car at all. You'll need a helper to hold the rear shocks while you loosen the top nuts.

And get a Factory Service Manual.

 

You put your right front in,
You pull your right rear out,
You put your right rear in
And you shake it all about.
You do the Hokey Pokey
And you turn yourself around,
That's what it's all about.

 

LMAO

Coming from a person who barley just started reading how to do this yesterday it looks very easy

I can upload the pages of how to do it from the haynes manual for you and also here is a thread I read for the rears

https://mustangforums.com/forum/clas...ar-shocks.html

and like 2+2 said it seems a lot easier to not jack the car up and just turn the wheel if you are large and cannot easily reach the shock

Here is where I read it

here is the manuel instructions

 

I did all 4 by myself, but a helper for the rear would make things easier. I agree about leaving the car on the ground and not jacking it up.

 

Jeeze, Chilton's step 2. will actually make the job harder and less safe.

 

Agreed, I wonder why they say to do it like that.

 

Wow, thanks everyone for the detailed response. I feel much more comfortable tackling this task now. The car has been sitting in the garage and will be for the foreseeable Chicago winter. These parts keep accumulating, and I figured I could get started on a few of the smaller projects...

Thanks again!

 

Have fun!!! And be safe around that coil hehe
