Shock Install at work! LoL....
So a co-worker/fellow engineer told me he was hearing rattling and banging on the passenger side rear of his Toyota Sienna.....LOL...
I went out one day last week and checked it out.
I found a blown rear shock and worn bushing where he was getting metal on metal contact and causing the rattling/noises he heard...
I advised him to get some oem replacement shocks from Autozone and today we went to town...
I replaced the shocks in our company lot....took about 20 minutes...
LoL, I get to now add a sienna to my list of installs....
fugger owes me lunch....

You should show it to your co-worker if he hasn't seen it yet, J.

to be honest, i forced him to let me do it........last week when i showed him all that it was, he told me he would go have it fixed and then i insisted that he just buy the shocks and let me do it..........he didnt mind paying, but at the same time was ubber great full in the end that i saved him a bill or more...
