Customer Reviews: Quick struts make for a quick jobJune 16, 2010 Mr. Robert C. Cox(Rochester, NY) The Quick Strut was not too difficult to install on my 1998 Camry. The Quick Strut comes completely assembled and ready to install. Since I already had experience doing the front struts the rears struts were easier to do. I suggest having two floor jacks. One heavy duty to jack the car and the other light duty to support the struts. Remember to use jack stands to support the vehicle. The front strut bolts are all easy to access, but a heavy duty breaker bar or impact wrench are necessary to remove the two large bolts. If you have rust on the bolts start using a pentrating oil days in advance of the installation. The instructions from Monroe was adequate, but you need to read them carefully the first time. I is helpful to have a repair manual for you specific car for the finer points. The rear struts top tower screws are accessed only after you remove tne the right and left side seat bolsters. If you push the bottom seat down below the bolster to can access the single bolt. To remove the rear strut tower bolts I suggest ratcheting box wrenches. You can do it with a standard wrench but since there is little space to work it will take longer to remove them (due to the position of the rear speakers) The struts installed easily once to master the art of jacking up the struts and aligning the studs at the top of the struts with the holes in the tower. Two people are helpful for this part of the process. Once you have it assembled check for any pull that might indicate that you have wheel alignment issues. This is normal and a 4 wheel alignment should be considered.
great delivery, easy to installAugust 20, 2008 T. Stevens 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Strut assemblies arrived on schedule and were straightforward to install (after removing the rear seat in my Toyota Camry!) Definitely a smoother more stable ride compared to the originals after 130K miles.
