You can try to repair a dishwasher or something tech. related and fail terribly.
You first need to jack up the front you are working on from the lower ball joint. Then you only need to unscrew the top mount nut and remove the 2 lower mounting bolt and slide the shock out the bottom of the lower control arm. Reverse the procedure to install the new shock. Repeat the steps on the other front corner.
Recognize that you will have to crawl inside the trunk first. There is a cover of trunk lining material over each shock that lifts off and exposes the top of the shock This will expose the two 19mm nuts securing the shock mount, BE SURE to change these in a shock replace, and the nut for the shock itself
The strut and coil spring need to be removed from the vehicle to replace the mount. Place the rear of the vehicle on jack stands. Take off your rear wheels. Remove the plastic cover on the top of the rear wheel well from the inside of the back of the vehicle. Remove the three small nuts, NOT the large one in the middle. Remove the sway bar link from the shock. Remove the brake line clip from the shock. Remove the speed sensor clip from the shock. Remove the two bolts from the bottom of the shock. You can now remove the shock. With a spring compressor, compress the spring until you can wiggle the mount. Remove the large nut from the center of the mount. Remove the spacer that is under the nut. You can now remove the bad strut mount.
Broken exhaust hanger? Loose rear shock absorber? Worn shock mount bearing?
Jack up the rear of the car, unless you can put it on a lift, remove shock mount bolts, remove shock, and replace
