You just pass the important part of the replacement

@jamesweaver3828 says:

Gonna try it

@AA-wt9ji says:

Unbelievable that they charge $1200 to replace the struts when you go to the shop but it took this guy all in 15 minutes for each side. The more work I do on my car the more furious I get at how much shops charge. Such robbery

@wmkess says:

Can't stress the alignment part enough! If your struts are really worn out, new ones will really throw out your alignment and ruin your tires quick.

Is Altima coupe and Altima sedan the same?

@cristiatutino3565 says:

Why is it so expensive to get these changed when it seems pretty easy.

@jaredjordan4603 says:

When I start to reinstall my new strut none of the holes line up. They're all like a quarter inch off

@BManVancouver07 says:

I followed these steps and it worked good. But now I hear a clunking noise when I drive. I took the wheel off and all the attachments are tight. I think it has something to do with the strut mount? It’s like there is play between the strut and the top of the wheel well or something?

@broski7106 says:

The strut not lining back up and the tire the same size, also the bar is too long for the strut despite the old and the new strut being the same length.
