replacing front struts

[Leeroy Lurker Find all posts View Profile Close Leeroy]

sorry to be a pest and if i'm going over old ground. i'm replacing my toyota front struts (120) with ironman gas/nitro (standard) as toyota advised driver side unit is leaking. They quoted $370 to replace it (only one, I thought you replaced them as a pair?). I have a gregory's manual which essentially say's remove lower bolt, then top plate nuts off, then manouvre unit out. Buggered if I can get it out. Can anyone let me know what angle, where abouts you take the unit out from. I've tried raising and lowing control arm with trolley jack, but nothing seems enough for clearance. thanks anyone cheers Leigh

Took you a damn long time for your first post leeroy

You might want to familiarise yourself with the search function, load of info on suspension and fitting it already posted.

This is probably the best one, took me about 10 seconds to find using the search funtion.
