When replacing front shocks -

-put the dust boots on first: When replacing the front shocks and there is a dust boot at the top, often it comes off. It is easier to get it back on before installing the new shock then after.

-put a little lube paste on tab from the hub that goes into the shock. It makes the insertion much easier.
