I will be changing per my Bentley manual. I was going to do it this weekend but it was too damn cold!

Daveinsaltlake has posted info about doing the fronts, and islingtonaudi has posted recently about doing the rears in his.

A 1/2" drive air impact gun and an air compressor make this job MUCH easier. If you don't have either, try to borrow them. That'll allow you to zip off the center nut that's on the end of the front strut insert's shaft.....as well as tighten it back down on the new insert.

You'll need a pipe wrench.....about an 18" long version.....to loosen the big collar that's threaded down onto the front strut housing.

Be sure to buy the bump stops because yours will be thrashed.

I did get bump stops and boots because they were shot.


Thanks for the help!
