Lift the carpet that is just behind the rear seatbacks. It is the forward most carpet of the rear compartment deck. There will be a 2 or 3 inch, square plastic cap that you have to remove to get to the pressure fitting. And, IIRC, there is a bolt in a spherical or cup-shaped recess that is the upper attach point for the body of the ram. This piece of carpet is held in place by 3 or so small screws. You will probably have to look for them. First time I worked on mine I had to pull the tire and look at the ram and figure out where it would be on the inside. From there on, it was a pretty straightforward game of take-it-apart-till-you-find-the-bolt.

What no one can tell me is how to access the top of the shock in a 300TD. The station wagon is different from the sedan or coupe. I've heard something about screws hidden under carpet. Lawrence R hodes
