So after replacing my control arms, tie rod ends, strut mounts, taking apart the whole suspension system, the knocking sound Ive had for about a year is STILL there :evil: . Unbelievable. The last thing on my list is the strut itself. My shop said they would install it for me and are letting me get the strut insert.
Now, two things. Any specific strut insert I should get? I will probably order from eeuroparts since they only take a day to get here. Second, since this is a strut insert, doesn't that mean that they do not have to take out the whole strut? It can just be replaced from the top correct? I really dont feel like paying someone else to do something that I could do. Unfortunately I have a limited amout of tools here at home but if doing a insert replacement is easy I will definately do it. Anyone have any instructions for this? Either I am doing the work myself or my shop is doing it thursday.
