  1. Do I gotta brace the strut? Imma do it right now I hope this strut don’t blow my face off

  2. Just curiousity, does it have to be loaded / on the ground conditions when tighten the knuckle bolt nuts into torque spec?
    I tried to installed new shocks but those weird duk duk sound keep happening when hit at speed bump or bumps. 😢

  3. Hey also to the guys that do this by themselves without a car lift and with just jack stands in order to get that front ball joint to line up with u slot u have to jack up the other side of the car so that it levels out for u in order to do that just thought I would let other people know for the guys like me who had to figure out how to do it 😊
