Hi,

To get you started, here is a link that explains in general how to replace the strut assembly. You may find it helpful.

https://www.2carpros.com/articles/how-to-replace-a-suspension-strut-and-spring

If you look at the attachments below, I included the directions specific to this vehicle for front strut removal and installation. The torque specs are included in the directions.

Note: The vehicle should be aligned after strut replacement.

Let me know if this helps.

Take care,

Joe
