Love your video
Don't remove axle nut ! Then you have to take apart sway bar link 13mm nut using a deep well socket to push down spindle to remove and replace strut !!!!!!!!!!!!!!and remove 10mm brake line bolt on frame so you can push down spindle !!!!!!!!!!!! and you need a 21mm deep well socket to remove strut bolts and a 3-5lb hammer !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is this the same with a 1999 buick century custom. It's my first car and this is the main thing it needs
yooooo putting the nuts back on the lower strut bolts for more surface area to hammer on just enabled me to continue with my project. thank you so much!
Rust Belt Auto. Great name. Great video.
Why do u loosen the center bolt
I have a 2001 Buick, low tire pressure indicator light came on and I inflated to Tire to normal. The manual said to go to the fuse box look for a red reset button but I cannot find that reset button can you help
Whats the torque spes
I just had my '04 done and they used the Monroe quick struts. I am noticing the ride height is at least a good inch or more higher than it was and I don't really like the way it looks. The Century is supposed to have somewhat of a forward canted look and now it doesn't. I only needed new mounts and wish I had just went with them instead of letting them talk me into the whole strut assembly! They were an AC Delco shop so I would have thought they would use OEM GM equipment??
I need to do this job (as well as the rear shocks) on my 96 Buick Century. I was dreading replacing the struts, but you've shown this is pretty easy. The only thing that sucks is I don't have a lift, everything is done on the cold hard concrete in my driveway with a floor jack and jack stands.
For shits and giggles, I called up a local auto repair shop and they quoted me something like $1500 for shocks and struts and $73 for an alignment. I may take it to them for an alignment.
