2010 Toyota Highlander Front Struts 

Your instructions were great! I used the KYB Strut Plus replacements and bought new sway bar links. We fought two of the sway bar nuts off before getting out the grinder and cutting the others off, as they were going to be replaced anyway. I really don't know how you would do this job without an air compressor and air tools. Thank goodness we had them. Those big bolts on the struts really took a lot of force before they let go. And thank goodness I had my 17yo grandson to help me, this is not a one-man job for an old guy.

Watching you , I’ve decided when mine need replacing I’m going to hire it done !!

Thank you Jim for taking the time to think about doing the video, recording the video then editing the video, all takes a lot of time and patience. I had to take out the front sway bars on my wife's 2009 Honda CR-V and it wasn't a simple walk in the park. I had to use MAP GAS (yellow tank) to put some heat on the bottom nuts and was much easier to remove them. You also need to be care full about the anti-lock wire on the caliper, you break that line and your talking $700 to replace it, so be careful. Didn't see you torqueing down the nuts and bolts on the job, as that is pretty important.

TIP put a jack under the new strut to hold it while you tighten the studs. TIL those studs you are tightening control the camber of your wheel.

You made it look easy great instructions

I usually just cut the sway bar link off. I had to do it on my 4runner as well when I replaced them. Cut off wheel or reciprocating saw works.

Awesome vid, thank you

Very nice video. I plan on doing mine soon.

Just did my fronts earlier this week. I found it easier to just cut the links off with a grinder. I used KYB Strut Plus units. I'm curious how those Detroit axle units ride. I'll be doing the rears later this week. Great video!

Thanks for the video! I'm curious how did you like the Detroit Axle struts, how did they hold up?

What’s the difference with the sport?

Thanks.

This is why Toyota is trying to charge me $1700 to replace a $10 control arm bushing and $900 to rec front struts...and $1000 rear...

I think you should have showed you putting the struts back in. I'm sure that's where people have a little problem, or the knuckle comes out or the bearings fall out. more of a detail video. lol

So no specs?

Hi, Do you recommend this brand ??? how is it holding up?

How many miles on your Toyota now ?
