i need to replace my rear shocks on my 97 sporty but can anyone tell me the easyest way to do it. Someone told me there is a panel you have to take off somewhere to undo the top of the shock but i cant see any panels anywhere. Help!

I've not done this on the Spo
I've not done this on the Sportrack, but if they are like anything else, you'll only get access to the top mount from inside the car - and that panel will probably refer to the side trim panels in the rear which may have to be removed.
Fold the seats forward, roll the carpet away (Including on the rear arches which could be fitted under the side panel hence the advice) and they should be visible. Good luck, and dont forget to soak all the lower mounting bolts in WD40 for about a day beforehand.
