1992 bonneville s.e. rear shock??

Post by brn2drm »

Would anyone be able to shed some light on what kind of shock is on the rear of my S.E. bonneville, is it air or is it a full strut type??? It looks like it's a spring and a shock on the outside , I just had a quick look under so maybe not...

Thanks ,Guys :)

Yeah, it's a strut. Pretty easy to replace. Make sure your air impact gun is powerful enough to break the nuts free.
