Rear airmatic replacement
Hi All - I'm considering replacing my two rear airmatic shocks myself. I'm handy with tools, so that part doesn't concern me. My question for those who have done this themselves is that I only have a floor jack and jack stands to work with. Will I get enough clearance to remove the shock just using jack stands? How much clearance is needed?
Thanks in advance

Yes, that can be done. Jack using the differential as a lift point, use jack stands under the two rear jack points (forward of the rear wheels).
