How to Remove, Assemble & Install Front Struts (Part 1) SAAB 9-3 2003-2011

[@julianswistak]

I had a Koni strut fail and needed to return it under a warranty claim. This job was a little out of my comfort zone dealing with the spring and spring compressor tool. The instructions were really good and I just took my time and paid attention to the video. The strut assembly came out with the spring not secure because the strut was apart. I thought it was going to take out the brake line and abs sensor wire. The stabilizer bar probably saved me-- luckily I still had it attached. I also did the wheel bearing in the same left front wheel on my Saab. Another really good video. Thanks for posting to your channel because you and Auto Autopsy are keeping my 2007 9-3 on the road. Merci.

Nice job. I can tell you know what you are doing. Thank you. I will be watching most of your videos, as I restore my 2003 Saab 9-3 SE Convertible.

How do you safely take off a spring compressor from one spring so that put it in the one I'm going to install?
