Great video but the only struts I can find are like $250 each. Any other options?
Excellent video however my struts seem to be just a bit hard to get back in place,and is resting on the boot.How do I compress the strut to line it up or do I need to loosen something else to get the bottom bolts in?
I was wondering if I should replace the suspension. I have over 180,000. when I got the car I replaced the tires cuz it was driving unbalanced. but there still is a problem when I drive at high speeds. the car sways
I have a 1998 Infinity I30. Struts have never been replaced. 163k miles on it now. Should I replaced them?
thanks, that helped a lot.. however, i wish you would have listed what tools you used to get to the bolts in the trunk.. it looked like you used maybe 2 swivels and had some clearance in the rear.. but it was hard to see.
I have a 2003 Infiniti Qx4 and it shakes when it reaches 60mph or more. I wondering if I could over the struts from somewhere and replace them myself?
Thanks for another great video.
I don't know bout picking your teeth up off of the floor but I almost lost 2 fingers a few years ago by loosening the piston rod nut while holding the spring. I knew better but my mind was on something else at the time I guess. I was so embarrassed I completed the job with 2 broken and mangled fingers. Do it yourselfers need to know that compressed coil springs can be very dangerous. Great job as usual, Jim.
Good call on replacing all four, they looked pretty used up. I like "picking up your teeth" take better. lol
good info as always Jim, thanks for sharing.
Could those have been the original struts that you replaced jim?
Warning was right the first time b/c that spring will cause injury or death like the warning tag states so if someone does take the bearing plate strut nut off holding the spring tension there's no telling where that will end up. You were right about the rear nuts being a PITA but they are easier to get to than a lot of cars you have to dismantle just to get to the tower nuts. Nice video Jim!
Good job jimmy.
Imagine the guy on the assembly line who has to put those rear struts in all day long.
How many miles on this one Jim
