I started work on mine... and got stuck... these kind of vids are SO helpful to allow me to have a rest, and see what info I am missing, so I can get un-stuck in short order. This provides a huge service to those of us who want to DIY, and just need a bit more background on the specific vehicle.

Awesome video! I appreciate it. That's one rusty pos!

I want to change the struts of my car but too many bolts

[@tallspaniard1]

Other than not saying anything about Lubing the brake pad slide bolts , this is probably the best do it yourself Video I have ever seen ….
Just add the fact that spraying down all the Rusted bolts before starting might save you 4 hours drilling busted bolts … Get a can of PB Blaster before starting , and at least 1 can of Brake cleaner to use at the end .
Bravo on the careful step by step process … You could work as a Factory Field Engineer for any automotive factory …
Best Regards and Luck 😎

[@jamespelino3173]

Excellent job very informative. Thank you.

[@nunurbuisness5578]

I already replaced my front end but if im gonna go through all this work I'll replace the whole rear end as well.

[@diyi75]

It's a very involved strut replacement 😂

[@dalebrewer3766]

Do you have vidio for the front wheel not just rear or all wheel drive for Ford 500

[@ReclusiveMountainMan]

Better late than never! I could have used this video a year or two ago when we replaced our struts on our 2006 Montego AWD (Ford 500). I did the front and took the car to a shop to have the rears done. I couldn't deal with dropping the sub frame to remove a strut assembly. That said, tha same shop forgot to re-install the rear upper spring insulator, so I'm going to have to tear the rear-passenger side strut out again. Thank you for this video. It's amazing!

No anti seize on reassembly?

[@dalebrewer3766]

On my 2006 Ford 500 front wheel drive only is not same as your vidio

Successfully changed my ford taurus but broke 1of the suspension bolt 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️😂
