Use care when handling front suspension coil spring, chips or cracks in the spring coating may cause spring breakage.
Place strut in Strut Compressor (J-34013-B) and compress spring slightly. Hold strut shaft from turning. Remove nut, and install Alignment Rod (J-34013-38). Loosen compressor screw, and remove strut and spring.
