    It can be a pain to try and hold up the strut in the morning holes and put a nut on at the same time. Only tip I have for that is to get another person lol! Some cars it’s impossible to do by yourself.

    This is too wild, because I was just talking today with my brother about doing this. Got lots of apprehension about doing this. I have worked a lot on washers and dryers, so a part of me thinks I could talk it.
    The front brakes, I believe, the rotors need replacing or what call "turned". Do you hav a video on that? How hard? What about that and putting in new brake pads?

    How do you know if the struts and spring needs replacement?

    • @LabCoatPaul
      @LabCoatPaul  5 лет назад +2

      If you still have the original springs, they are bad. Struts and springs are good for about 10 years. You can test your struts by pushing down on all 4 corners of the car. It should bounce back up and and stop. If it bounces more than that, the struts aren't working.

      I made some strut spacers out of HDPE plastic. It's high density plastic. Easy to cut, but as strong as steel. I had to install longer strut bolts.

    So no compression required?

    • @LabCoatPaul
      @LabCoatPaul  Год назад

      If you buy a loaded strut, a new spring will already be installed. If you are re-using old springs or assembling the struts yourself, you will need a spring compressor.

      They should be the same. I think the only difference is the V6 Camry is a little heavier in the front.
