front shock absorbers

this may sound like a dumb question but I’m goin for it anyway.

the front shocks on my 06 IC Corp RE200 are bad. two replacements have arrived and I need them switched out ASAP.


do I have to jack the bus up to change them?


thanks for the help

If you can fit yourself and your tools under your bus and reach both top and bottom fasteners you don't need to jack up the bus. My answer is predicated on the shocks being conventional tube style and not for example coil over strut style like now used on most passenger cars.
