The placement of the shock on the clamp at the bottom is super important. this video doesn't really show it but there is a thin metal guide that goes into the slot and that has an opening for the bolt. I did it wrong and put it above the bolt. So it bent and went through and destroyed the boot below it. My fix when repairing it was to just put the (new) strut and the clamp together on a bench and then put the assembly in the car already together. Saves a lot of hammering even though it's more weight to put the strut in. I used the jack so that wasn't really hard to do.
vielen herzlichen Dank für das gute Video und die genaue Erklärung der Vorgangsweise!!! TOP!!!!
Very informative.Thanks
Good job bud.
Unbolt the sway bar link, done.
How dos vice grips hold the strut still for you I have tried it in 10 different place to hold it still and take off the top nut and and all it does is spine in the grips or kick the grips off the strut
If it were on Jack stands with only the front end up, should the parking break be on or off? With the rear wheels chaulked?
Excellent video. Thank you.
Camera is nicely focused on what is being done.
Not clear if ant body parts from top need removal
to access top of old shocker before removing old strut.
Showing that detail would make it even more clear.
But a great video.
❤❤❤
got some monroe struts the top rod keeps turning as i am tightening the shock at the top cant get 40lbs
I would think you would have to get the vehicle aligned is that correct?
+Victor Garcia Yes, an alignment would need to be done after installation.
How do ya get the WIPERS off to get at the TOP of the shock?
Took the 13mm nuts off but they wont pry up? Maybe they rusty. Thx.
I thought my mechanic was ripping me off... nope, this is just a super complex procedure 😂
