Spring Seat Replacement

Post by wolf »

I was wondering if replacing the spring seat in the strut is pretty easy to do? I need both to be replaced and it seems like 150-300 dollars at the dealer is pretty steep, does anyone have a little tutorial or anything to help?

Thanks

^^^ There's a guide on replacement of the shocks/springs. It covers what you need to know to get to the spring seats.
