I replaced struts, discs, calipers tire rod ends and the left axle on my 2003 OG. Vert. Not too hard. Only 76000, when I got it in March but, being a New Hampshire car it was a complete rust bucket. Just drove it 400 miles today to Beaufort, SC for a visit with my son and it performed flawlessly. Lives to cruise between 80 and 90 mph.
Unfortunately, I don't have a talent like you.🤩 so I have to give the car to the garage because I do not have the appropriate equipment. Respect for your work.👍👍
Those spring compressors are really scary. Every time you lean yourself over the spring, i get a bad feeling... Myself I once used these kind of compressors and it slipped. The spring went far in the air and was close to hit my chest and head on the way up. I told myself to never use them again and for the next time I will put some money into serious tools instead. Nice video!
Kyle, I think yo forgot to install the zinc-coated spacer between the strut and the bottom of the spring. Part no. 4689378. You still have it on the old strut, I think. Just use a wire brush and you'll recover it. This spacer reduces the corrosion. Just give it a good clean.

Or bring them to a shop. Buying expensive tools for possibly a one time job is also a waste.

Hi Kyle nice job! Ever have the stabili track failure light issue?
How can I raise the front of this same car about 1"-1.5" to give more road clearance
Does the springs you bought lower the ride height
