Front Strut Assembly Check
• Inspect strut for oil leakage, damage or deformation.
• If strut is found faulty, replace it as an assembly unit,
because it can not be disassembled.

2) Bounce vehicle body 3 or 4 times continuously by
pushing front end on the side with strut to be
checked.
3) Apply the same amount of force at each push and
note strut resistance both when pushed and
