The bottom part of the struts are mounted to the body on a small ball joint with a locking lever. to remove just unlock the lever and pop the strut off the ball. The top is mounted with brackets. Just remove the brackets and voila! The new struts will or should come with their own brackets. Hope this was helpful.

∙ 14y agoProp the liftgate up securely with a 2x4 to get easy access to the struts....the liftgate is HEAVY and will hurt you if it falls closed while you're doing the replacement. The struts are held on top and bottom with small clips at the pivot point. Just pull the clips out, remove the old struts and reverse to replace. 15 minute job and easy to do.
