Honda Pilot Complete Rear Suspension Rebuild (Part 1)
This video covers the complete rear suspension rebuild on a first generation Honda Pilot (’03-’08-some of this info also works for later models). Every part of this rear suspension gets rebuilt in this series, control arms, shocks, stabilizer links and bushings, rear CV boots, differential seals, rear brakes and more. Part 1 covers the removal of the rear suspension, differential, and subframe.
