Rear shock replacement guide?
Im getting clunking sounds from both rear wheels when getting out of my driveway. Driveway access isnt flat but has a small curb.
I suspect going up and down this small curb everyday has killed the rear shocks. I have to back it into the driveway due to clearance issues with the front bumper. Car is 2016 300 f sport AWD.
How do i access the rear shocks? Spent a few hours searching the site and cant find info on rears, only fronts. Do i have to rip apart the carpeting to access the bolts? Thanks in advance!

If the scenario you're suggesting has caused the rear shocks to fail, then all of us will need rear shocks.
If they have failed, then it's likely due to something else.
I've hit some potholes that I've felt in my soul and the shocks are still fine...and I'm lowered on RSR Downs.
Is the suspension completely stock?
