Please update your video for the torque on the strut fork bolt. 119 ft-lbs will strip the bolt...much different than 47 ft-lbs which is what Honda calls for!

The nice thing is that there is no need to remove the mud shield. Thanks for the video, very useful.

When you started the job the upper control arm was old and rusty, but when you installed the strut, suddenly it was brand new!

Incredible video, thanks for sharing. I did have a question, what’s the name of the tool you’re using the red one that measures the torque, I would like to purchase that model. Thanks 🙌🏼

It’s just a fancy wrench if you google digital torque wrench you’ll see there is plenty to Choose from

I’m replacing the top mount on one of these struts because the bushing is bad, does anyone know what to torque that center bolt to?

Why did you loosen the upper control arm ball joint?

It's 47 foot pounds for the Damper Fork to Lower Control Arm bolt. NOT 119 Ft/lbs. Didn't realize until I read the comments for fun, almost ruined my bolt..

Hello! I have a small question, if I install a strut bar on top of these strut towers in the engine bay for better handling, what should be the torque that I should go with? 25ft/lbs or 37ft/lbs?

@Hihat123223 2 жыл бұрын

The aftermarket manufacturer of your bar should tell you, they engineered it. And if they can't, that should tell you all you need to know about what kind of product you bought.

What happens if you accidentally took the center one off first?

@projectbudget2024 2 жыл бұрын

the strut basically explodes, that middle nut is holding the top hat onto the spring keeping it all together, remove the top bolt and youre relieving a ton of pressure on that spring. If youre going to remove a spring make sure its completely compressed
