During reassembly, ensure that all parts are correctly positioned. Inspect all components for wear or damage and replace them if necessary. Be diligent in tightening all fasteners to their specified torque and consider replacing self-locking nuts. After completing the reassembly, it's recommended to check the front wheel alignment and, if applicable, calibrate the steering angle sensor, especially if the vehicle has active steering.

The shock absorber check involves parking the vehicle on level ground, checking tire pressures, pushing down at each corner of the vehicle to observe the movement of the body, and determining if a worn or weak shock absorber is the cause.

After removing the upper mounting nut, lower the shock absorber out from underneath the vehicle. If needed, you can also remove the two bolts and the mounting from the suspension arm.
