DISASSEMBLY
1. Install Tool (A) to strut and secure it in a vise.CAUTION:
When installing Tool, wrap a sh op cloth around strut to pro-
tect it from damage.
2. Install Tool to strut rod.
3. Slightly loosen piston rod lock nut. WARNING:
Do not remove piston rod lock nut completely. If it is removed completely, the coil spring can jump
out and may cause serious damage or injury.
4. Compress coil spring using a commercially available spring compressor.
WARNING:
Make sure that the pawls of the two spring compressors are
firmly hooked on the spring. The spring compressors must
be tightened alternately so as not to tilt the spring.
5. Making sure coil spring is free between upper and lower seats, then remove piston rod lock nut.
6. Remove small parts on strut. • Remove strut spacer, strut mount insulator, strut mounting insulator bracket thrust bearing, spring upper
seat, and upper rubber seat. Then remove coil spring.
7. Remove bound bumper from spring upper seat.
8. Gradually release spring compressor (commercial service tool), and remove coil spring.

1. Install the lower rubber seat to the strut. Make sure that the pin (A) on the lower rubber seat is positioned into the hole (B) on the
strut.
2. Compress coil spring using a spring compressor (commercial service tool), and install it onto the strut.
WARNING:
Be sure spring compressor is securely attached to coil
spring. Compress coil spring.
CAUTION:
Face tube side of coil spring (1) downward. Align lower end
to spring seat (2).
3. Connect bound bumper to spring upper seat. CAUTION:
• Be sure to install bound bump er to spring upper seat securely.
• When installing bound bumper, use soapy water. Do not use machine oil or other lubricants.
4. Install small parts to the strut. • Connect upper rubber seat, spring upper seats, thrust bearing, strut mount insulator, and strut spacer.
Temporarily install piston rod lock nut.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse piston rod lock nut.
