You are correct the suspension parts do wear out after time. Last year I replaced struts, shocks, lower control arms and links at 210,000 miles. Bumps were fine and the rear springs too, now my 22 y/o son owns it. And yeah after changing those parts it drove smooth.

Great video. I have a 2005 Pilot with 188K. I’ve only recently started doing my own maintenance. So far, I’ve replaced a knock sensor and a cv axle. You are totally right about saving money but so far any savings has been offset by tool investment. I think my next project will be rear suspension as mine feels (and sounds) pretty squishy. I will definitely use your videos as a reference/guide. Oh, and thanks for including the torque specs in the video.

Honda no longer has the bump stops for this model (ours is an '03). Where did you get your parts?

@adadofmanytrades5135 Жыл бұрын

I had to do some digging through my email. Here is a link to the part I bought: www.cheaperhondaparts.com/oem-parts/honda-rubber-rear-bump-stop-52722s9va04?c=Zz1jaGFzc2lzJnM9cmVhci1zaG9jay1hYnNvcmJlciZsPTEmbj1TZWFyY2ggUmVzdWx0cyZhPWhvbmRhJm89cGlsb3QmeT0yMDAzJnQ9ZXgmZT0zLTVsLXY2LWdhcw%3D%3D . It is showing out of stock right now. You might want to contact them and see if and when they plan to have more available. I need to do this again for another kid's car soon so I may update this if I find them at another vendor. I tried going with out them and it didn't work out well. Put 2-3 people in the back seat and go down a bumpy road without these and the rear will bottom out. Even with completely new suspension.

@innercityprepper Жыл бұрын

That would have been at least 1500 at the shop, possibly even 2,000. Parts are always way more expensive via the shop because of the warranty. Only thing I would have done is also replaced the sway links while you've got it all apart. They do fail, and cause an annoying knock sound on bumps and potholes, etc. Just did all 4 corners on my '07.

About Rock Auto when I order my front and rear shock absorbers they send me the vrong parts they where stiff as they could be no absorbers at all besides they where a cheap quality I had to go to an auto wreck in kenosha Wisconsin to get a used original Honda pilot 2005 front absorbers I still have to get the back out and get some decent shock absorbers, never again I will use Rock Auto for my parts.

@adadofmanytrades5135 Жыл бұрын

I hate to hear that. I have always had good luck with them. I just purchased a used Pilot for my son after he wrecked the gold one and the rear suspension is in pretty bad shape so I will be doing this again soon. It's going to need a front suspension overhaul too so stay tuned for that.

@@schifoso Yeah that's insane. I can't see myself paying that much for those things, especially if I never bottom out or have a load heavy enough for them to even be needed. There's an aftermarket for literally every other part except those. I'm glad you were able to find some.

Great video. I have an 07 pilot with 193k miles. I have most of the parts already but after watching this, I’m gonna do the bump stops and springs also. I’ve got the sway bar links all 4. Rear shocks and complete shock/spring for the front. Still need to get the lower control arms. I’ve put it off replacing what I have because I don’t want to get an alignment multiple times. I’d rather do everything then get it aligned once. Hopefully this month I can finally find the time and get it done. Always fun to do your own work and play with some tools.

Unless your jumping you car, I was told the bump stop is not not necessary. They're on back order for me so I'm leaving them out.. Thanks for the vid great explanation and extremely helpful.

@76williamsbh Жыл бұрын

That maybe true but my experience has been different. Ours are family cars so they are constantly kids and cargo in the back. On bumpy roads you will notice the Pilot bottoming out pretty bad if you have any weight in the back. We live on country roads that are pretty bumpy. Consider a little patience and wait for the parts if any of this applies to you. If you do everything but the bump stops and decide you want them installed, you will have to pull the coil springs again to do it. Thanks for watching and commenting!

@55nublet Жыл бұрын

@@76williamsbh great point. It just me and not any kiddos. The parts are on back order with no timeframe. I cannot find them anywhere. My rear shocks are so bad so I have no choice. I'm usually on flat surfaces and mine are completely gone already. I'll have to redo them as you said.

Great job . I have some oil leaks on my 2005 Pilot. The dealer puts in synthetic oil, was wondering if is to thin for this year . The book just calls for 5/20 weight oil. Any thoughts

@johnlopez3001 Жыл бұрын

I put synthetic oil in my kids 2004 Accord EX V6 and a few months later it was leaking oil. For the next oil change I used convention (non synthetic) oil along with AT - 205 Re-seal, which seemed to help, over time the engine leaks aren't as bad as they used to be. I used AT - 205 in a old 3 Ton Jack that leaked and it doesn't leak oil anymore. These quick fixes in a bottle are always hit or miss, but sometimes I get lucky. Good luck.

Thank you for taking the time to make this video. The key to having some idea if you should change the shocks and springs is the measurement you did at the start of the video. If it's below 32", then it's time to do that install. Once all is said and done, it should be just shy below 33". I'm taking my '05 in to get this done using your parts list.
