Great tutorial sir. I recently did this job, and had a heck of a time knocking out the strut which was rusted into the pinch knuckle. So I had to cut the old strut in half with an angle saw grinder, which by this point had already leaked out most of the oil. 1 hour job turned into 4 hours lol.
This is a good instructional video. Very good details. Just replaced struts on an 02 Envoy, 2wheel drive. Had to use propane torch to heat up lower part of strut arm to get it off vehicle. Putting everything back together wasn't that hard. Hell, I'm 67, so this can be done in the driveway by almost anyone. Saved me a bunch of money.
The parts were purchased online from Rockauto. Depending on how easy the parts come apart and if you have the assistance of an impact, it takes about 1 1/2 hours to do both sides. I wish you the best on your repair.
@@bbbjim1fixedit Yes I need to work on shocks, ball joibts, links and what ever come out bad. It's never only what we think. Once we start removing parts you will find more. Maybe brakes, rotors, bearings. That's what every owner fears about when starts taking apart. Thank you
