How do I replace the shocks on my 2005 Explorer?

[1ijack]

I just received the new struts (front and back) for my 05 Exp. I do not have a Service Manual at this time so I need some guidance on replacing these units. It has been a while since I changed out struts (non Fords), hated back then too. I have a spring compressor and the tools to do the job, but always looking for the expert advise from experience.

Thanks
Jack

Welcome to this forum! I've renamed your thread, and moved it into the stock 2002-2005 section.

Does anyone have a "how to"
I've only replaced the shocks on my old chevy before and not anything else
