How to service the rear shock absorber on 2002 Toyota Tacoma?

Service the rear shock absorber for RZN191L-TRPDKAB, RZN196L-CRPDKAB, PZN196L-PRPDKAB, VZN195L-CRPDKAB, VZN195L-PRPDKAB models by using safety stands to mount the body after jacking and dropping the axle housing to reduce leaf spring tension. Begin the repair by unscrewing and then torquing the two rear shock absorbber set bolts to 26 Nm (260 kgf-cm, 19 ft. lbs.) for 2WD models and 71 Nm (730 kgf-cm, 53 ft. lbs.) for 4WD and PreRunner models before extracting the shock absorber. This process requires users to observe the shock absorber output rod behavior during compression and extension in order to detect irregular resistance levels or strange noises; nonstandard parts should receive immediate new replacement. The process of discarding a shock absorber requires complete rod extension followed by drilling a hole in the cylinder to vent gas inside while maintaining attention to avoid flying debris from the drill. The steps for installation are performed in the opposite sequence to removal.
