Replacing air adjustable rear shocks
Haven't seen anything on the procedure on replacing air adjustable shocks.
Should the air pressure be released before removing the mounting bolts
or after? The answer will probably be pretty obvious when I hear it :D
Thanks.

Re: Replacing air adjustable rear shocks (pats406nitrovette)
I'm not really sure, I slowly lose pressure and have to "re-inflate" them
every so often. In addition, the rear spring is fairly flat. My plan over the next month or two is to replace the rear shocks and the spring.
The ride is not bad, all things considered. I personally like the "feel" of my 78 compared to my wife's 82 with a fiberglass spring.
