  • In an alternate version with no helper but an extra floor jack you could connect the strut to steering knuckle bolts first and then use the floor jack to help maneuver/lift the strut into place to connect the 3 upper bolts. Probably some other ways as well but whatever works best for you and is still safe :)

    I thought I recognized that van 😂. I definitely learned something new today watching your educational video about changing struts. Great video

    Thanks. Looks like a pretty easy job in this particular vehicle.
