wheel bearings?
It is common to have a knocking or clunking noise of a 99 Nissan Altima, even after the struts have been replaced. This may be due to worn ball joints. It is best to replace the ball joints, too.
Yes, if your car has shock absorbers it would only be if they are broken in two pieces; if your car has struts then it is probably the upper mounts that are bad. If it is struts and you have the upper mounts replaced, you will also need an alignment.
Struts are not adjustable, and must be replaced if faulty,
You can lubricate struts but it is not necessary. It won't stop them from needing to be replaced for wear and tear.
I have the same question. Has anyone in the Celica community ever removed these before? I've searched high and low and have not found any help...
Worn or loose strut bearing (holder)
it should although you may have to replace the struts and any supporting factors b/c the engine will be heavier
form_title=Shocks and Struts Replacement form_header=Getting your shocks and struts replaced will restore vehicle handling and control while greatly improving ride comfort. What is the year, make and model of your vehicle?=_ How many miles do you have on your car?=_ When was the last time your shocks and struts were replaced?=_
If struts are included, I would guess $200-400.
Struts and shocks have a life span of 50k miles.If your struts have started to leak,they need to be changed as soon as possible.
The struts on a 2004 Ford Expedition are replaced by jacking the vehicle up, removing the wheels, and removing the strut retaining bolts. The old struts can then be removed and new struts put in their place.
THE REAR STRUTS HAVE NYLON BUSHINGS WHERE THEY MOUNT TO THE FRAME, AFTER A FEW YEARS THE NYLON HOLES WHERE THE BOLT GOES THROUGH GET WORN OUT AND THE STRUTS START SLAPPING UPK AND DOWN WHEN HITTING ROUGH ROADS. MINE WERE DOING THE SAME THING, I REPLACED THE STRUTS AND THAT TOOK CARE OF THE PROBLEM. struts mine did the same thing Answer I had this problem on my '98, I replaced the struts but that did not take care of the problem, what it ended up being was the rear sway bar mounts had been worn and loosened enough to create this problem.
