Just did our struts today and this video was so helpful, thanks guys!!

@debruin14 says:

116 lower strut bolts , swat bar links to 58 ft lb, 33 ft lbs upper strut bolts, double check all, 80 ft lbs for wheel lugs, and get an alignment.

@cesarz188 says:

I thought you were supposed to torque the top mount bolts with vehicle on the ground sitting on it’s own weight?

@djarcforceable says:

Torque specs should be included in the video description. Just a suggestion for future videos. Not a hater… I'm actually installing a bunch of TRQ parts on my Honda right now.

@ReisWorx says:

The front looks a lot easier than the back

@Seniorbooper224 says:

Would these torque specs be the same for a 2013 crv ?

@terrimac7993 says:

How long did this take?

Good simple job, thanks!

@iceburg018 says:

Just changed my sway bar links today. They were a b*tch getting off! Next weekend will be the struts so thanks for a great video. Honda wanted 3.2k for the struts/links!

@markduykers6603 says:

Great video! Also so nice that your sway bar links are brand new and have never seen a speck of salt! I have to use my angle grinder, a torch and tons of Kroil every time I take off old ones. 😉

If your steering system in a Honda CRV works hard, repairing it is very simple, just replace the upper mcperson bearing, which in the CRV has two Teflon bushings without a ball bearing inside, with the bearing from the Volkswagen Passat B6, which is a ball bearing. Replacing it is very simple. However, the Volkswagen bearing has a slight play, but just put two 32 mm O-rings inside and everything fits and there is no play After the replacement, the system works very smoothly and the delicate and it stop Noises from the jumping spring of the suspension Which were there before when you maximum turn.
