Excellent straight forward all business with no fluff or cussing. Thank you young man, I appreciate your video and good work.

[@Mainbusfail]

That was the best instructional video on ford expedition strut replacement on KZbin. Excellent job sir. Thank you so very much.

[@ValleyMobileAutomotive]

You're welcome! Glad this was helpful 👍

[@kirillkapaln4536]

good thing you reused that bolt so it has anti-sieze from the last thoughtful person that made your job easier today.

[@rickbiehle10]

Tools needed - 30mm, 21mm, 15mm deep sockets, blue loctite front- strut to control arm nut - 350 ft lbs, tie rod - 111 ft lbs, upper strut bolts (x3) - 30 ft lbs rear strut to control arm nut - 295 ft lbs - tie rod - 41 ft lbs, upper strut bolts (x3) - 26 ft lbs

[@kirillkapaln4536]

that was alot of pretty to see anti sieze on the lower strut bolt made it so easy

[@jorbitz69]

Very nicely done. Your option to fast forward some parts in the video helped to lower the total overhead and resulted in a compressed version yet still showed how it is done DIY. Moreover, the use of air tools combined with the use of pry bars made it easier to finish the job. Well done.

[@kristen23231]

You made this look too easy 😂 I keep telling myself that it isn't this easy but it's making me want to try it myself haha. I doubt I'd be able to man handle those struts though

[@ValleyMobileAutomotive]

@@kristen23231 If you do tackle this invest in a good breaker bar! The bottom bolts are tight. But you can do it 👍

[@AUDIO2AUTO]

I can guarantee you that nut will never vibrate off, rust is my loctite..lol

[@markkelly4002]

Great video..

[@MrSnoopyMan]

Quick question, is there any different between the front and rear struts?

[@ValleyMobileAutomotive]

@@MrSnoopyMan Yes, they are different part numbers. I have links in the description if that helps 👍

[@johnnymikeasky6815]

No bullshit this is how it’s done

[@ValleyMobileAutomotive]

Thanks! Glad this was helpful 👍

[@brs2947]

what struts are these? do you have a link by any chance?.

[@ValleyMobileAutomotive]

These are O'Reilly house brand struts. I use them a lot on many vehicles. I've had mostly good results with them but a few times I've noticed defects that needed to be exchanged for new ones.

[@daryljohnson6333]

Hey there, we’re converting from airbags in, so don’t have the old struts to compare to maybe a silly question, but which strut so you’re saying is larger in diameter , the front or the back

[@ValleyMobileAutomotive]

Typically the front will be bigger because they hold more weight than the rear.

[@Hjtrevizo]

Great!!

[@tomseim]

Can just the shock be replaced w/o removing the spring?

[@ValleyMobileAutomotive]

No, the spring is part of the strut assembly. They have to be removed together.

[@Chugg.Norris]

LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

[@ulisesmartinez8866]

The torque specs seem high. Online it says rear lower strut bolt should be 75lb

[@adriansimpson1182]

Whatis the brand name

[@ValleyMobileAutomotive]

These are house brand struts from the local auto parts store.

[@kirillkapaln4536]

2:53 all that play up and you move the camera out of the way and not show it come out?! I feel robbed. You took something from me there. That was disappointing.
