Install the wheels and lug nuts and lower the vehicle. Finally, tighten the lug nuts to the specified torque.

Regular inspections of the steering linkage and suspension components are essential because worn or damaged parts can lead to various issues such as abnormal tire wear, poor ride quality, compromised vehicle handling, and reduced fuel economy. Identifying and addressing problems in these systems can help maintain the vehicle's safety and performance.

Mount the strut clevis bracket portion of the strut assembly in a vise, being careful not to clamp any other portion of the strut assembly. Install the spring compressor on the spring and compress it sufficiently to relieve all pressure from the upper spring seat. While holding the damper shaft from turning, loosen the shaft nut with a socket. Remove the nut and suspension support, inspecting the bearing and rubber portion for any issues. Remove the upper spring seat and dust boot from the damper shaft, as well as the rubber bumper. Carefully lift the compressed spring from the assembly and set it in a safe place, making sure to mark it for reinstallation.

Inspect the strut body for leaking fluid, dents, damage and corrosion. Check the spring for nicks, chips or cracks in the spring coating.
