How to replace the shock absorber on a rear-wheel drive on Chevrolet Express 2500?

The Shock Absorber replacement begins with a vehicle lift before inserting a jack stand under the lower Control Arm. Start by removing the Shock Absorber nut and bushing and afterwards the lower mounting bolts before extracting the Shock Absorber from the vehicle. The new Shock Absorber needs proper placement before it faces the mounting holes of the lower Control Arm and the lower mounting bolts require installation at 25 nm (18 ft. Lbs.). Put the upper retaining nut along with bushing in their position and torque the nut to 20 nm (15 ft. Lbs.). After removal of safety stands and vehicle lowering the craftsman should discard the previous Shock Absorber.

How should one safely drain oil from gas charged shock absorbers on Chevrolet Express 2500?

The high-pressure gas inside gas charged shock absorbers requires users to avoid removing the snap ring from the top of the tube because this action might lead to severe ejecting and cause injury to personnel. Security eyewear should be worn for shock absorber center punching and drilling operations to ensure personal safety while avoiding tube punctures. Use an indentation centerpunch to create a mark 10 mm away from the tube base. Place the shock absorber rod completely extended before securing it in a vise at the horizontal position. Drill a hole at the centerpunch point using a 5 mm (3/16 inch) drill bit while the gas along with possible gas/oil mix remains free to escape, use shop towels to capture visible oil. The drilling process requires making the first hole at the tube's middle with a centerpunch followed by using the same 5 mm (3/16 inch) drill bit at the counterpunch position while managing oil discharge with shop towels. Dismount the shock absorber from the vise and position the holes downward in a drain pan as you move the rod through the tube to extract all oil from the system.
