Best Answer

The strut and coil spring need to be removed from the vehicle to replace the mount. Place the rear of the vehicle on jack stands. Take off your rear wheels. Remove the plastic cover on the top of the rear wheel well from the inside of the back of the vehicle. Remove the three small nuts, NOT the large one in the middle. Remove the sway bar link from the shock. Remove the brake line clip from the shock. Remove the speed sensor clip from the shock. Remove the two bolts from the bottom of the shock. You can now remove the shock. With a spring compressor, compress the spring until you can wiggle the mount. Remove the large nut from the center of the mount. Remove the spacer that is under the nut. You can now remove the bad strut mount.
