How should you replace a shock absorber to avoid damaging the brake hoses on 2006 Chevrolet Aveo?

The procedure of replacing shock absorbers requires performing the replacement step by step to prevent damage to brake hoses. Remove first the Shock Absorber-to-body bolts situated at the upper position. The vehicle must receive proper support from a body hoist combined with adjustable jack stands which should stabilize the rear axle assembly. After disconnecting the lower Shock Absorber-to-axle bolt you should take out the Shock Absorber itself. Before tightening the Shock Absorber attachment bolts you must bring the axle assembly to its proper trim height. The installation requires using the Shock Absorber lower attachment bracket to fit the lower Shock Absorber-to-axle bolt through it before inserting into the axle body. Put the vehicle at an appropriate height to thread the upper shock stud through the body opening and install the bolts without tightness. The complete procedure requires tightening the lower Shock Absorber-to-axle bolt to 72 nm (53 ft. Lbs.) and the upper Shock Absorber-to-body bolt to 50 nm (37 ft. Lbs.).
