Is it completely necessary to use the 90 degree angle tool? I've never seen it used before and don't have one

Hi, the top strut bolt lives in an oversize hole to allow camber setting. You lost that setting. Some apply punch dots to allow align on re assy.

Love the videos, thanks 1AAuto for supplying these!!

Thanks for providing torque values!

Misha Ivankov says:

Do you need wheel alignment after all of this?

Richard Wilkins says:

Great video, much better than other more “sterile” ones, where you can tell everything is new and easy to work on.

One negative though is the cut between getting the ball joint stud located, and getting the knuckle back in place. No amount of prying gets the strut back into a good enough position.

REMOVE THE SWAY BAR LINK. And if you can’t, order a new one and grind the old one off. Seriously

Tomasz Dabrowski says:

Fast'n easy. Well done

Why do some brands use bolts while others use studs?

Benjamin Wasson says:

I was COMPLETELY unprepared for the weight of the wheel hub assembly, when I watched this video I didn't notice the jump cut when he gets the pry bar out, I had mine handy still, but had to get a neighbor to come over and help me align the bolt while I lifted up the wheel hub. I also think it would have been a lot easier with the rod that goes to the strut detached, I had a lot of issues getting the strut far enough out of the way to lift up the assembly. I would say, if you're doing this by yourself in your garage, you should take off the rotor as well, because that'll save you about 30 pounds of lifting and make it easier to maneuver stuff.

Wolfy Wolf says:

Very comprehensive, but no one I know has a $2K 3.5 Tonne car lift in their parking garage or on their driveway that I can use, and why did you have to fully remove the lower control arm?
