Hi,, thank you for making this video. One question though. Are the two large bolts on the bottom side camber bolts for camber adjustments?? It does look like those 2 bolts have non-threaded shoulders for camber…Do I have to get a wheel alignment at the shop after doing this? I know Toyotas use camber bolts for those two bolts so alignment is required after this. Not sure about Mazda. See here where it shows Toyota strut bolts are also camber bolts…https://youtu.be/bUJx2GXYBEk?feature=shared

This took less than 20 minutes to replace. I am getting quotes of $1000 to replace my struts. If I had a garage, I would do it myself.

How much did the part cost you. I saw 275$ was it for one or tow front strut

@orestdmytryshyn247 says:

I would have removed the sticker from the top and cleaned all bolts and seating surface of the knuckle (maybe used new bolts if factory service manual calls for that). Using of a torque wrench is a must. But otherwise thank you !

Hi there, my 2014 mazda cx5 makes clunk noise when going slow on small bumps. I've been doing a lot of research on it and many people end up changing bushings from the stabilizer arm or just the end links. I checked mines everything looks fine, now I'm starting to think it's my shocks. Noise only comes from the left driver side it's very annoying. Do you have any tips?

@alimodz6253 says:

The time has come to change these in my car.. Do you recommend getting genuine mazda parts or can I go with cheaper random brands?

My left front strut is lower than the right. I’m at 90,000 miles now gonna change it this weekend. My left back shock is out too shows leaking whatever you want to call it . Question, can you post a video asap of where to properly put jack stands ???

I waited a couple years for a simple video !!! Thank you!
