Hey again guys. question...
2.0L engine 95 GL contour
Is there a special procedure for removing the front struts, or am i just overlooking something simple. Heres what ive done:
remove tire, disconnected brake hose and sway bar links, disconnected tie rod end from knuckle, remove knuckle to strut pinch bolt, remove top mount, then heres where i get stuck.
The darn thing wont come out of the knuckle. It has about 1/2 still left inside the knuckle, but if i try to move it upwards, it goes against the spring...
Should i just attempt it like the rear struts and compress the spring while its still in the car?
