Replacing Front Struts on a Front-Wheel Drive Vehicle : Removing Front Strut Mounting Bolts

[ryanlester1980]

There was a rupper on top of the metal part of the struct that had dry rotted( my mechanic said it was a damper). I replace the struct without this rubber. What was the purpose of this damper?

This clip could of been about 10 seconds,,

Remove these bolts here,, (and then point to each bolt),, done!!!

if you are going to show how to remove bolts say so in the title, and u should wire brush the crap off them first then lube them and they will remove much easier.

I hate seeing people beat on tools like wrenches and sockets. This is an application where a brass or Teflon hammer would be used, So as to not damage the thread and your tools.

The entire procedure is broken up into several clips. Look at the related vids.

Great video but WTF why would someone need to know "how to remove some bolts" I mean if u dont know how to remove bolts obviously you should not even attempt to replace struts!

[VDPEFi]

who needs instructions on how to undo bolts?!! I thought it would at least show the complete strut removal process!

[Toolie35]

i caught that too

[mickblock]

Good demonstration.

Why does the video description refer to "grade-A"

steel? It's grade 8.

[volleyballdude33]

If you listen closely he does say 8. But I agree it definitely sounded like A the first time I listened.

@volleyballdude33 No I meant the description text. It actually says grade A. But hell it's expertvillage.
