A few things he skipped: 1. The small dot on the strut is to be facing toward the outside of the vehicle, when he said “forward” I thought he meant towards the headlights, which was wrong. 2. You WILL have to rotate the bottom section of the strut. I did this using a spring compressor rented from the auto parts store. If not, the strut will not align with the lower control arm. 3. Mark the plates on the two caster / camber plates with a sharpie before loosening it. You can align your marks after everything is placed together so get a rough alignment before you get to the shop.
Skipped rotating the shock eyelid. Unless you rotate it, the shock will not fit back in the LCA. Not everyone is gonna know that. Crucial info, not criticizing just bringing it up.

Look like the front higher than the rear.

How can it be rotated
@@jdenha7078 you could have it facing inward
he said it had a mark on the top
I agree. Had to do this to mine as well.
More tundra videos please 😬
My tundra has a 37 1/4 on the front and 39 1/4 on the back would this be recommended to even things out
How can I make the top screws line up with the bottom one ?
