In the case of the shocks or coil springs it is imperative to think twice before proceeding to perform any work on them; as these are not field repairable items, and if they leak fluid, cause loss of damping ability, or have cosmetic and visible tells such as chips or cracks, they must be replaced. Spare complete assemblies could perhaps be availed from an exchange basis depending on individual circumstances, thus requires that the cost and availability of the particular part before embarking on a wiping exercise of the vehicle be considered. Start by removing the front wheel lugs, preferably by taking the vehicle on a raise using jack stands and detaching the wheels. On 4×4 and Pre-Runner versions, unbolt the lower engine splash guard and the stabilizer bar along with links; it's necessary to disconnect the links from the steering stock. Taking into consideration the models with 2WD, you must disconnect the brake hose connected to the shock absorber, as well as unweld the upper control arm. After that, unlock the two nuts on the lower mounting of the shock absorber assembly to the lower control arm while paying attention to the driveaxle to cover it while pushing the bolt in as far as possible. Whilst loosening the upper mounting nuts, support the shock absorber assembly and avoid to turn the damper rod nut of the spring-in status. Once the shock absorber assembly has been detached, check on it and the coil spring for damages, and replace data that is damaged. Clamp the shock/coil assembly in a bench vise without bending/damaging the shock body and thereafter mount a spring compressor using the manufacturer's guide and compress the spring just to the extent that one can wiggle it. As the damper rod remains in the eye, unscrew the damper rod nut; then withdraw the components above the spring starting with the one on the top. After that, dismantle the compressed spring assembly and check all rubber elements, washers and suspension support for the signs of the wear and apply the new parts if needed. Introducing starts counter to the process of disassembling, guaranteeing that the coil spring gets into its rightful position nicely, and then, after a new nut to the damper rod has been tightened to a fixed torque, the spring tension is released. Lastly, installation is the process of doing the complete opposite to removal and after putting all fasteners as tight as possible up to the torque that is recommended, the brake hose bracket is secured properly.

Tighten the lug nuts to the specified torque.
