Rear shocks & Coil springs Replacement
How do I replace the rear shocks and coil springs on a 2008 HHR LT? Is there a video of some sort I can reference? Do I need to take it to a shop or can I do it myself?

You can do it, https://www.chevyhhr.net/forums/how-...gs-7187/page3/ see pictures at #21 see this for rear shocks https://www.chevyhhr.net/forums/how-...ock-how-29504/ |
Remove the 2 bolts holding each shock.
Take care with the brake lines, disconnect them if needed. remove the shocks Pry the trailing arm down and remove the springs. You will probably need new jounce bumpers and isolators for the springs. https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.che...e3f8136c50.png |
