    Idk why people think they gotta take off the entire cowl and Wiper arms to do this. Basic ratchet wrench and a little finesse gets it done. Glad to see you show them its not needed.

      @@AJIMPORTS No problem man. I also found it helpful that you always called the nuts by their sizes, so it was very easy to remember. It saves a lot of time if you know the sizes beforehand.

    It’s a good idea to use a torque wrench when tightening up the bolts.

    You don't really need to grease the top mounts their sealed bearings ! How were the mnroe struts in the winter were they stiff ? I have to change mine to KYB

      Never had any issues with the Monroe struts.

      Yeah, don't need to grease the strut mounts. You're just going to collect more dirt and create a stronger chance of it failing prematurely.

      What will not spin. The strut mount?. If it slanted something might be wrong or not aligned correctly
