maybe your tires are too hard
no
Undo top & bottom bolts & nuts & replace shocks. No major knowledge or tools needed
not recommended unless you have a lot of money. You need to change front springs and shocks to support the extra weight. Motor mounts, transmission mounts, transmission, driveshaft, rear end, rear springs and shocks to take extra torque, computers need to be changed to program v-8 instead of 4 cylinder, Exhaust and catalytic converter need to be changed.
Take the drive shaft off. Unbolt the shocks, then the leaf springs. And the brake lines
You may be feeling a rough ride in your 1998 ES 300 due to poor shocks or struts. I would suggest having your mechanic take a look at them.
Check the strut mountings Check springs and shocks they may be worn out
To disconnect the coil springs on a 1998 Chevy Venture you first need to jack the vehicle up and release as much stress from the springs as possible. You may need to find a spring compressor to release the springs.
Depending on the type of shock, every 1 to 3 years.
First go to Autozone and peek into a Chiltons manual. Peeks are free
well in my experience i like to send it to the mechanics and let them bloow it up
4 shocks ONLY, NO struts.
