Just a tip on the hose clip, you don't have to remove it from the hose. What you do to remove the hose from the strut - you grab the clip from the end loop and rotate it radially 90 degrees and release from your fingers, it will stay on the hose black elbow. Once you've installed the new strut place the hose on the struts and rotate it the clip back to it's original position...it actually snaps in place while you rotatate it back at some point just make sure you press the hose onto the strut fitting. I don't swear but if I did, this is when I would do it!

I changed mines out to conversions didn't want the bladder to bust again. That long piece you where talking about is a Lateral Link and it is adjustable. But from the inside. Make sure you mark that bolt on the inside to get it back to spec or close to.

GM used Bilstein but the also cheaper out sometime and used Tenneco. I know this because some Z-71 Silverados have Bilstein and later the switched to Tenneco. Mine were the Black Tenneco.

On your Niece’s car, how did you know you had to replace the compressor? Mine is making noise every time I turn the car on. So, I’m assuming it working but I feel like after watching this, the shocks are leaking.

Are you buying your stuff off eBay? If so check out RockAuto I bought thousands of $$ of Parts and never really had a problem. Yes there is a shipping cost but almost everything I bought has been half the price for the same parts at Advance or Autozone. For Example they only had 2 Shocks for my Truck, but the 2 Shocks were the price of 1 at Advance. They were Monroe. My Moog front end Parts would have been $440 at Advance. Same parts Rock were $220. Some people complain that RA has cheap Chinese parts, but they don’t know what they are talking about. RA has an article I forget where, in their site, but yes they sell some real cheap parts it says you may want these parts if you don’t plan on keep your car long, etc. Also there are 5% discount codes on a site called retail me not. You put that in when purchasing where it says how did you hear about us. Usually I get my parts in 2 days. If you order tues. Which I do to make sure I have them for the weekend. I bought a AC Delco fuel pump. $300 at Advance and $150 RA.
