Hi all, any tips on removing the rear struts? Not sure how to get the third row seat out. I understand I also have to remove the interior panels. How long a job do you estimate this is?

If you like to work on your own vehicles and just need a little guidance, there is an online manual from Chiltons that should have diagrams & instructions:

Cost is $15 for a 30 day subscription, or $25 for a full year.

Another option....For $15, you can buy an electronic copy from Ebay:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/151247438383

Pay the $$$, then get an e-mail within 24 hours with a link to download the .pdf.

....just to add to Frogbox's suggestions. For Chilton manuals you can also try going online to your public library and accessing the manuals for free. You will need a library card to gain access....felt weird getting one after so many years.

Note: The online manuals only have information for 2009 Dodge Journey's but I'm guessing most, if not all of the info will apply to 2010's.

Or, pony up and spend $25-30 and buy yourself a haynes or chiltons manual. Priceless to have the info at your fingertips. First thing I do when I buy a vehicle, get a haynes or chiltons manual. If I need more in depth info, I will search ebay for some FSM's. Paying even $100 for a set of FSM's is well worth it for me. Without a warranty, just going somewhere for advice will cost you that much.

Good luck finding one. There is so much information for vehicles these days that paper copies would have to be the size of several telephone books. So much easier to get it in electronic format and if you need a hard copy of a specific procedure, just print those pages from the .pdf so you have them handy in the workshop.

In fact, unless they changed their policy recently, Chrysler/Dodge won't even release the data for a manual now (even to AllData.com) until the vehicle is a couple years old (close to or out of standard warranty). So manuals for 2014s won't be available for a while yet.

The last paper manual set I had was for my 2008 Dodge Avenger R/T. It was 6 books at probably 4" thich each (covers all models, globally). Very hard to read compared to the older format of the manuals. I haven't seen any of the recent ones, because 2012s were just released.

Your vehicle's shocks and struts absorb shock and impact from rough terrain, and help stabilize the vehicle by insulating the chassis and cabin from excessive suspension movement. Shocks and struts are designed to improve the overall control, stability, and comfort of a vehicle and also help maintain braking performance. Over time, the shocks or struts on your vehicle can wear out or suffer damage due to high temperatures, especially bad roads and impact, deterioration, and weather conditions, and if left unchecked, damaged shocks or struts can negatively affect the ride quality and safety of the vehicle. Signs of bad shocks or struts include bottoming out, excessive vibrations or bouncing when on rough roads, cupping wear on the tires, or extended braking time. The performance and lifespan of your shocks or struts may depend on your driving habits, road and climate conditions, as well as your towing loads, which makes routine car inspection especially important to ensure continued safety. It's recommended that you have a trusted mechanic inspect your suspension system for signs of damage or wear every six months or 12,000 miles. Damaged or underperforming suspension components can not only decrease the comfort of your ride, but may also put you in danger due to a lack of traction and increased braking distance. Shocks and struts should always be replaced in pairs at each end of the vehicle, since they have likely experienced similar amounts of wear and may fail around the same time. When the time comes to replace your shocks or struts, check out the selection at O'Reilly Auto Parts. We carry shocks and struts, as well as complete strut assemblies and parts, for most vehicles. If you'd like step-by-step guidance on your next suspension repair, visit our How-To Hub for topics like how to replace rear shocks , the differences between shocks and struts , and much more.
