How to service and repair the front shock absorber and steering knuckle on Cadillac Eldorado?

The repair process for suspension strut begins by drawing marks on the inboard strut surface with an accurate tool following the upper knuckle radius. Make a scribe mark along the lower curve of the strut on the knuckle before adding a scribe mark across the strut/knuckle interface. Make sure to align the scribed marks between components when reintegrating parts.

How to replace the front shock absorber assembly on Cadillac Eldorado?

To remove the strut assembly, first remove the nuts that fasten the strut assembly at the top end to the body. Lift the vehicle and hold the frame with jack stands. First and foremost, the tire and wheel assembly must be removed. Take care not to over-exert the innie tri-pot joints close to drive axles where this might cause unterminating inner component separation and joint failure. Additionally, do not scratch or crack the spring coating of the front suspension coil spring to prevent the coil spring to fail quickly. Remove the road sensing suspension position sensor form the lower Control Arm, if installed. Scribe the knuckle and strut and then remove the stabilizer link from the strut and the brake line bracket. For strut 4.6l disconnect the strut electrical connector. Unplug the wheel speed sensor wiring harness and the anti-lock brake sensor connector. Remove the strut-to-knuckle bolts and support the knuckle on wire prior to removing the strut. In installation, align the scribe marks and install the strut, and the strut-to-knuckle bolts, as well as the strut electrical connectors. Replace the a.b.s sensor, stabilizer link, brake line bracket, and the road sensing suspension with the position sensor to the lower control arms. Secure the nuts installing the top of the strut on the body and following a fastener torque specification: the wheel nuts should be tightened using 140 nm (100 ft. Lbs.), stabilizer link nuts using 55 nm (41 ft. Lbs.), strut assembly-to-body nuts using 21 nm (15 ft. Lbs.), and Steering Knuckle-to-strut nuts using 190 nm (140 ft. Lbs.). Finally, lower the vehicle.

The position of the Shock Absorber of Cadillac Eldorado vehicles is critical to the suspension systems alongside the struts that it is correlated to. These components being able to reduce bouncing and also to flick off impulses trying to improve ride and handling characteristics. Through the time there are two general types of shock absorbers used in Cadillac Eldorado vehicles; twin-tube and mono-tube, although both of them are designed in a way that they employ hydraulical fluid flow in order to perform different driving conditions. Other subsequent advancements include Position Sensitive Damping (PSD) and Acceleration Sensitive Damping (ASD), that fine-tune the shock absorber's characteristics for certain driving conditions and Electrorheological (active) or Magnetorheological (active) dampers that enable semi-active or adaptive suspension systems perhaps the premier of both worlds.
