Thank you 🇺🇸

A little spray lube goes a long way to make them break loose.

Great video and tutorial, thanks! I couldn’t get my torque wrench on those top two nuts, so I’ll need to go buy a shallow socket

[@maxlove4821]

Your pretty shallow Your self.

Thanks man this is great! Really good job recording! I have the exact same vehicle and am getting ready to replace my struts. So I got to go through the entire process with you before hand! Did you need to do an alignment after changing the struts?

[@CountyLineGarage]

Glad I could help. Yes an alignment check is needed after replacement.

Yeah for sure. Don’t remember the mileage at this video but it’s at 160k now and now issues.

looks like a 2012 not a 2013, my 2013 escape se awd struts slide INTO knuckle

[@CountyLineGarage]

possibly a difference in the escape and explorer?

@@CountyLineGarage yeah I had accidentally read this as a 2013 escape vid and when realized error could not delete. maybe you can delete as its totally offbase
