i done a good few front springs struts on my own cars and friends in the past(ex truck and bus mechanic) but i have never seen one with a top nut tucked away under the bulk like that. going to be doing one for a friend on his Berlingo van so thought i would see if anybody did one on here. thanks Guddu Pappu .with a quick recap off this video, i reckon i could nail it in an hour or so on the side of the road. cheers again

Good video but surely if you are replacing the shock absorber it would make sense to replace the strut mount bearing at the same time.

Great video could use a ratchet spanner on that top nut.

Is there a special adjustment on those spanners for torque ? Or do you just go "click" when it feels right?

You can use the Torque wrench to tighten to specific Torque in my case I don't have one

Part 2 coming later when he takes it back off again to replace the crusty old top bush because it’s still rattling its beans off.

Anyone know why its hard to get a hold of a complete strut assembly? My shocks and springs both need doing so I figured I wouldn't waste time taking the old bits apart if I can just put in new struts and call it a day Could I get the parts for a strut assembly and perhaps take it to a shop and have them put it together for me?

Hello friend, I would like to know another way to remove the nut from above, because it costs me an amount, greetings from Chile.

the stabilizer strut does not twist with a screwdriver, screwing a finger is a damaged strut!
