Thanks for the video. After watching it, I bought new struts for my S197 and had them changed in 2 hours! Turns out my Mustang still had the original struts from the factory. Liked and subscribed!

Awesome I’m glad I was able to help! Thanks for watching!

Awsome video. Very clean and informative. Will be a go to for this job. Thanks

[@JunkyardJunkie]

Thank you! Glad I could help. Thanks for watching!

[@vincentducas1538]

Thank you so much! I’ve been watching a chris fix video changing struts on a mazda but the struts were not fixed on the car the same way as they are on a mustang. And each of your steps in this video were really well explained btw. Keep up the good work!

[@JunkyardJunkie]

Thanks! That truly means a lot to me. I’m glad I was able to help. Good luck. Thanks for watching!

[@BenjaminScott72]

Your video has helped me a lot with this project. Thanks

[@JunkyardJunkie]

That’s great! I’m glad it was able to help. Thanks for watching!

[@Lslade1224]

Love your videos !! They sure have helped me save money by doing it myself... thank you so much

[@JunkyardJunkie]

That’s awesome! I love to hear that. Thanks for watching!

[@sherrysweeden9025]

Really informative. Thank you!

[@JunkyardJunkie]

Glad I could help! Thanks for watching!

[@briantaulbee6452]

Looks easy enough. Probably won't be when I get to it though

[@JunkyardJunkie]

It really is a easy job the only part that can be tricky is when putting it back in. It may want to fight you to line up. My advice have someone help you for two seconds, so they can screw the nuts on as you focus all attention on sticking it up threw there. Good luck let me know how it goes! Thanks for watching!

[@TBALD66]

Awesome detail. Thanks

[@JunkyardJunkie]

Glad I could help! Thanks for watching!

[@Lslade1224]

Does it matter what size tires you have on your mustang, I have 18's and have seen some ads for struts that are for specific sizes

[@JunkyardJunkie]

No it’s fine. Ads are super weird with how they try to sell you things haha. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching!

[@Jekauskus1]

Hello for the video. Is it Motocraft astl43 spare part?

[@JunkyardJunkie]

I’m sorry I don’t know the part of hand. Best of luck. Thanks for watching!

[@Jekauskus1]

@@JunkyardJunkie ok, thanks for replay

[@trailslug893]

Which exact struts did you put on this Mustang?

[@JunkyardJunkie]

To be honest I can’t remember which ones I used. Sorry about that. Best of luck. Thanks for watching!

[@mcgerry1543]

Is the GT struts the same as the V6 for 05-09?

[@JunkyardJunkie]

I believe they are. but where ever you get them from you should be able to check fitment. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching!

[@AMSOfficial79]

Do you need an alignment after doing this?

[@JunkyardJunkie]

No you’ll not need a alignment. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching!

[@luisb5547]

What impact you use?

[@JunkyardJunkie]

I use Milwaukee impact. But any name brand will do really. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching!
