Brother, you da man! I just finished this repair on my 2008 Tundra and this video completely walked me through it. Exactly the way a KZbin video should be: all steps clearly explained, nothing missed, and solid video. One extra recommendation: I removed the small 10mm bolt on the upper swing arm that holds the ABS cable. This bought me a little more slack to ensure I didn't accidentally stretch the line. Also, to anyone attempting this repair, the prybar was an invaluable tool! Make sure you have one ready. Excellent video overall! Thanks man!

Blair, you work just about like I did when I was a Wrench. (combo hand/pwr tools, graduated UTI 1972) Good show. One tip on the sway bar: Remove both wheels, then the sway bar nuts from both sides, then remove both bolts. Now it doesn't have any tension on it and will swing up and out of the way without needing a pry bar (usually). I see the axle in there, so it's a 4WD. How much different is the 2WD? Does the LCA drop easier? You included all the tips I would have, so I can tell that you are a pro rather than a fly-by-nighter. Those come from having worked extensively on vehicles for years. (I'm surprised you didn't know the sway bar trick.) Kudos on a great video. Potential Revit customers: I think you can trust this guy. (I'm a retired mechanic.)

I looked up this video with the job 50% complete. Using the service manual, it doesn't really tell you the UCA needs to be disconnected. I had all 4 top nuts off, and there was still terrible spring pressure keeping the strut in! ALSO, on the passenger side, there's one top nut that WILL NOT come off. It's about 80% up the threads and a 6 point socket is slipping on it. Yay salt. Back outside to disconnect that top ball joint and sway bar. e: Successful, but, fuckin' shit ass hell! In my swap, I was installing KYB struts, a Moog top plate, and re-using the original spring. Used a rented spring compressor, and cut the old shock out. It compressed by hand, and stayed compressed.

Bad instructions do not follow. This does not give enough clearance to get strut out and puts a ton of strain on brake lines. Found better videos showing to just drop lower control arm. Struggling to get it raised up to reconnect upper control arm. Mine is a leveled 4x4, maybe that makes all the difference but appears to me much less work to drop lower control arm

Are you not too concerned about getting the proper torque specs?
@Revitauto4 жыл бұрын
Always concerned about getting proper specs. But when you do this every single day for years you get a good range of what torque is. I will make a challenge video with all the mechanics at Revit and see how close we can all get ;) Torque specs are in the description.

Revit Auto Awesome man. Thanks. I wasn’t trying to be a smart &$$, just curious. Didn’t see them in the description. That would be a cool challenge video.👍

What brand strut assembly you’re installing? And where can I buy?

I am pretty sure I ordered a set of Monroes for this truck. It was a long time ago and the repair was on a repair shop software that we no longer have access to. I ordered it online.
