- Mazda CX-9
Hi. I'm about to replace the rear shocks on my 2007 CX-9. Unlike some other Mazdas, this vehicle has a single mounting stud at the top of the shock. This upper mounting stud "disappears" into an area above the wheel welll. Do I have to remove one of the vehicle's rear side interior panels to access the nut on this stud? I didn't want to start tearing into things without getting some input from someone who has done this rather simple replacement. Any info will be appreciated.
It would also be great to get the torque specs for the lower mounting bolt and the upper mounting nut. Thanks! John in Wisconsin
