RE: 1998 XJ8 REAR SHOCKS
first youneed the right tool ... the spring compressor... or some guys call it a widow maker...remove the rear hub 18mm bolt (mark this excentric bolt due to this being the rear toe adjustment)and a 22nut.. then lift then put to the right side(if doing drivers side rear)do not remove axle nut justpush to the side. there might be a washer that will fall out.. at the lower faulkrum bolt washer..tighten up spring then remove four nuts at top then remove lower shock bolt, then with your prybar and some strength...pry top of the shock out with spring.. then remove 17 mm nut at top shock .. then remove shock.. just remember how the bushings go...
