How to replace the shock absorber (W/O F55) on 2005 Chevrolet Corvette?

The Shock Absorber (W/O F55) replacement process starts by lifting and supporting the vehicle while removing the tire and wheel assembly. First disconnect the electronic suspension control electrical connector when it exists on the shock unit. The replacement of the Shock Absorber (W/O F55) starts by unfastening the upper mounting nut then removing the insulator retainer and insulator before proceeding to detach the Shock Absorber from the upper shock tower and vehicle by taking out the lower mounting bolts and nuts. Heavy-duty shock-equipped vehicles (FE3) require manual compression by using a pry bar below the Shock Absorber. The shock support tool (J 43822) needs installation as the Shock Absorber remains compressed before extracting it from the shock tower. To install the Shock Absorber you must attach the retainer and insulator followed by putting it back into position on the upper shock tower while securing with the upper insulator and nut then the retainer before tightening the upper mounting nut to 26 nm (19 ft. Lbs.). Proceed by attaching the lower mounting bolts and nuts before tightening them to 28 nm (21 ft. Lbs.) while also reattaching the electronic suspension control electrical connector if present. Conclude the process by removing the transverse spring compressor (J 33432-A) then reinstalling the tire and wheel assembly followed by lowering the vehicle. Heavy-duty Shock Absorber installation requires using the shock support tool (J 43822) twice before inserting into the vehicle to secure its position with upper insulator and retainer and nut while tightening the upper mounting nut to 26 nm (19 ft. Lbs.). Use the shock support tool (J 43822) to compress the spring through the transverse spring compressor (J 33432-A). Then lift the lower Control Arm and apply lower mounting bolts and nuts with a torque setting of 28 nm (21 ft. Lbs.). Finally, remove the transverse spring compressor (J 33432-A) and reinstall the tire and wheel assembly before lowering the vehicle.
