Rear shocks on a front wheel driven vehicle are easy re-placers.



I would have fun with it though, I would bag it or put in some air shocks.91 acura integra rear shock replacement?
It's a snap.91 acura integra rear shock replacement?
the rear (shocks)are actually strut Assemblies,1 most of the time the lower mounting bolt gets seized into lower control arm and if this happens you need to replace bushing and bolts 2you need to take rear interior apart to access top of strut mounting bolts.3 you need a spring compressor to compress spring then take out old strut and put in new one.NOT an easy job to do on the ground. ive done many of these cars and they are the same design as a honda civic rear strut.HONDA TECH 12YRS don't listen to those other guys.
