If you have a Porsche Boxster, well, here's how to change the front hood strut. I would have changed it much earlier if I knew it was this easy. .

Switched mine out today cause the lid fell on my head lol. Your video helped a lot!

@Nags58 Год назад

I have a 2017 Boxster S and my struts are also failing. You video is very helpful! Thanks.

@Ultrarunnerdad 5 месяцев назад

Just picked up a budget Boxster, project 2 on the list is this job. Thanks for the explanation 👍

@BeatTheBush 5 месяцев назад

It's so easy. 10 minute job. =D

My Boxster tried to eat me today. Thanks for the vid and link. New struts arrive in two days!

@BeatTheBush 4 года назад

HAHAHHAHAH! I know the feeling! It tried to eat me a few times.. hit my head before I got fed up and installed these.

@theend8951 2 года назад

Fantastic.... I should have done the same... ha ha ha.. I have just purchased a pair, now. Thank you very much for your wonderful time and energy. Good luck my friend.

@rhondamorrison7583 7 лет назад

I have a 1999 Boxster and I am going to try changing all four. The trunk and the engine compartment. Thanks for the video!

@BeatTheBush 7 лет назад

You're welcome! It's really easy as you can see. It's about time for the change based on the year of your car.

@EnagizahBunneh 7 лет назад

Your random videos are awesome. Big fan of your work! Keep it up!

@BeatTheBush 7 лет назад

Thanks! Appreciate you enjoying the randomness, lol. =D

@dougsimpsonmusic 2 года назад

Great instructional thank you! My hood came down on my head lol. It’s cool that the hood and boot should spring up at a certain point. I guess my 98 Box has needed them since before I bought it.

@drew32 4 года назад

Just did it. Took 5 minutes thanks to you!

@BeatTheBush 4 года назад

You're welcome!

@ichhasseamerika 3 года назад

Just found this on a google search. Having same problem on my 911 (2006 997), and pulling the part off, it looks *exactly* the same! Gonna try my luck with your part (seems they have many parts in common). Thanx so much for this! Was getting tired of the thing trying to 'eat' me every time Im in the trunk. :D

@PeterNSteinmetz 5 лет назад

Thanks for making this informative video. Just followed it to replace the hood struts on my boxster. Your were right - easy and should have done this several years ago.

@BeatTheBush 5 лет назад

=D Thank you come again! =D

@waltertoki1 4 года назад

Thanks for your video. I successfully changed the front struts on my 2001 Boxster following your instructions. Also as you stated the paper instructions that came with the struts are incorrect.

@brucebolla4148 4 года назад

I enjoy your easy going attitude. Thanks

@navyengineer1 7 лет назад

Thanks for the help, BTB. Took less than 10 minutes to replace both front struts. Now I can put my putter back in the bag. =)

@pwagner650 3 года назад

Thanks for the encouragement. Just did my 2008 Cayman S with some $25 struts from Amazon.

@joelenrubick8655 3 года назад

Awesome! I have new struts, now I feel confident to install myself. Thank you!

@PugLifeRocks 7 лет назад

Dude how do you know how to do these things? You are so smart!!!

@BeatTheBush 7 лет назад

I didn't really know. Usually, I just buy the part and 'figure it out' later.

@BeatTheBush 5 лет назад

Easy right? You’re welcome.

@idm2716 7 лет назад

Great instructional video! Very clear instructions, well demonstrated. Going outside to do mine now!

@BeatTheBush 7 лет назад

Pop out, pop in. Done. =D

@MrGreencheetah 7 лет назад

I need to do this job myself - thanks for the video!!!

@BeatTheBush 7 лет назад

Seems about the time for the struts to go for late Boxsters. =D

@jimstimpson7336 4 года назад

I just replaced mine after seeing your video. Very easy. Keep up the good work. 👍👍👍

@BeatTheBush 4 года назад

Thanks! Yeah, it was easy.

@boag3144 5 лет назад

just got those today might put them on tonight i paid about 20 dollars. I was jumping my 356 one day with my boxster hood open well the trunk went down while the clamps were on the battery it left one nipple dent with little tiny hair line cracks its very small but i should have changed those shocks a long time ago. i also just bought Cougar Motor HD BULBS 35W SUPER VISION HID 5000K XENON BULBS CHEAP.

@jasonnelson3056 7 лет назад

Thank you, I have the same car so when this becomes an issue I now know what to do.

@BeatTheBush 7 лет назад

I noticed it ... ummm 2-3 years ago, lol. So I peg it at 12 years of endurance before you notice. =D

@gordonreid2624 5 лет назад

perfect thanks, that the struts on my Boxster 981 changed in 5 minutes

@BeatTheBush 5 лет назад

Nice! Same here, they work great still.

@emilhajric-helpjuice 7 лет назад

I don't have a boxster, but I do have a CLA45 AMG and a Vantage v12, but I still find your videos very enjoyable. +1 for more car videos, +BeatTheBush

@BeatTheBush 7 лет назад

Excuse me Mr. BTB YOUR OLD CAR IS AMAZING..... I'm jelly lol

@BeatTheBush 7 лет назад

Really? Even with my old beat up Porsche? I'm telling you, it's about to roll over.

@susanvelez6534 7 лет назад

Your awesome...hey I may ask if I can return the go pro...think the Cannon G7X will be much better for my channel, and I think it is less expensive too!

@BeatTheBush 7 лет назад

Susan Velez Depends on where it was bought from. Some stores are more strict while Best Buy will let you return it even if its opened.

@bu5761 7 лет назад

Yup. Mine is a 2002 and I've been using a wooden dowel lol..

@BeatTheBush 7 лет назад

I thought of doing that but gotta keep up the appearance otherwise a roll of newspaper would do as well.

@bu5761 7 лет назад

thx for the link. of course now that I'm about to sell the car I'm looking into the replacement lol. I've owned it for 6 yrs! I watched your cam shaft pulley vid as well.. mine is making a rattling noise but not out of balance so that's my next project to figure out, along with the aos...which is in the mail.

@BeatTheBush 7 лет назад

Wow, so many projects in one go. After you are done, it will be ready to keep!

@bu5761 7 лет назад

great vids, helps guys like me take care of the projects ourselves without Chilton's or Haynes like the old days lol.
