Hi, just wondering if there is any info on how to replace the front drivers side entire shock/strut on my 2003 Navi.
It is a 4X4 and has the Air Suspension.
Looking for instructions please! Thank you!

 

Welcome to the FTE, enjoy your stay.

Here's the info from my service manual, the pix don't come through , but this should help. You should really replace both shocks at the same time

NOTE: The vehicle must be positioned on a suitable lifting device prior to deflating the air suspension switch.

1. Deflate the air suspension system. For additional information, refer to Ride Height Adjustments in this section.

1. Raise and support the vehicle. For additional information, refer to Section 100-02 .

1. On LH air shock removal only, disconnect the top of the front height sensor from the upper frame bracket.

1. Remove the air shock lower nut and bolt.

1. Disconnect the air spring solenoid air line.
   • Compress the quick connect locking ring and pull out the air line.

1. Remove the air shock upper nut, grommet and the air shock.

1. NOTE: After installing the air shock, it is necessary to inflate the air suspension system. For additional information, refer to Ride Height Adjustments in this section.
   NOTE: When installing the air lines, make sure the white air line is fully inserted into the fitting for correct installation.
   To install, reverse the removal procedure.
