Should the removal and installation of the rear shock absorber be left to a dealer or properly equipped shop on 1985 Mercedes-Benz 300TD?

On level-control models, the rear shock is part of the leveling system; dealer or shop should handle it. Otherwise: remove rear seat/cushion, block front wheels, raise rear and support on jackstands, remove cover, remove upper nuts/lower bolts, detach shock, reinstall reverse; gas-charged may require jacking the rear trailing arm.
