you will need a spring compressor to do this job. or you could remove the strut & spring assembly & take them to a local shop and have them swap strut assemblies. if you dont have a spring compressor, DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS REPAIR. the springs are very strong and can injure you severely. i will tell you how to get the assembly out. once the tire is off, you will see 2 bolts on the lower end of the strut. remove these 2 bolts. then, under the hood you will see 3 13mm bolts holding the strut mount in. remove these and the strut assembly will come right out. after this, you need a spring compressor. also you will have to have a wheel alignment performed after replacement, your alignment angles will be all messed up when you are done. this is normal.
