• Floor jack
• Jack stands
Disassembly
1. Start your strut installation by inspecting your chassis. Look for worn/deteriorated bushings, ball joints, etc. Replace any
worn components before continuing.
2. Jack the car up and ensure that the frame is set securely supported on jack stands. See your owner's manual for proper
jacking techniques.
3. Remove the front wheels.
4. Position a floor jack under the ball joint area of the lower control arm. Jack the control arm up just enough to take the
load off of the strut and the spindle without raising the car off the jack stands. This will retain the factory spring.
5. Loosen the factory nut on the upper end of the piston rod where it comes through the factory caster/camber plate.
There is a hex to enable use of a wrench to keep the piston rod from turning. Do not completely remove the factory
attachment nuts at this time.
6. Unbolt and disconnect the brake line bracket from the strut. Move the brake line to the side to ensure it does not get
stretched or damaged while working on the car.
7. Loosen and remove the two nuts and bolts that attach the strut to the spindle.
8. Remove the factory nut at the top of the strut and remove the strut assembly.
