strut replacement - the easy way 700 1987

posted by  someone claiming to be stavros on  Fri Sep 13 03:37 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Neat idea: I'll add this to the FAQ. The only glitch would be the top nut on the strut: it's often tough to remove off the car. Better to loosen it first (but not remvoe it) while still on the car and make sure you can get it off without air tools.

Sometimes the ball joint bolts and other components are stuck as well. I have a fitted puller, but not everybody does, so they should be ready for some grunting.
