Rear

The rear strut assemblies support the weight of the vehicle using coil springs positioned around the struts. The coil springs are contained between the upper mount of the strut assembly and a lower spring seat on the body of the strut assembly.

The top of each strut assembly is bolted to the top of the inner fender through a rubber isolated mount.

The bottom of the strut assembly attaches to the rear knuckle using 2 thru-bolts and prevailing torque nuts. Rear Caster and camber on this vehicle is a fixed setting (net build) and is not required to be adjusted as a normal procedure when performing an alignment on this vehicle.

The rear strut assembly includes the following components: A rubber isolated upper mount, a jounce bumper, a dust shield, a coil spring, a lower spring isolator, and a strut. Each component is serviced by removing the strut assembly from the vehicle and disassembling it.
