Shock is short for shock absorber and mountis where it's attached. Usually found in vehicles, where shock absorbers as a part of the suspension works to provide the vehicle with a smoother ride when going over bumps.

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


How do you change the rear shock mounts on a Lexus RX300?

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.

Does upper shock have vertical stud at top of shock or a hole on top of shock? paul To put it vaguely: Be it front or back, the unit as a whole, strut, spring, mount, is removed and the spring must then be compressed to replace the mount, then the spring is let out, then the assembly can be reinstalled.

What is the circle around a microphone in a recording studio?

It's probably either a shock mount or a pop filter. Without seeing exactly what you are asking about it's hard to say. A pop filter is an independent piece that goes in front of the mic. This is to help keep spit off of the mic, and to lessen the sound of s's and p's. A shock mount is usually a round piece that the mic sits in. Usually the shock mount is connected to the mic stand, and then the mic is placed in it keeping it somewhat suspended in air.
