How to Replace a Rear Strut Mount

Подробнее о видео

Here's how to replace the rear strut or mounts on a sedan.
When struts or mounts get worn, they cause annoying clunks over bumps. In this case, the strut mount had become free from its rubber, limiting the mount of isolation between the movement of the strut and the body.

To remedy this, the strut must be taken apart to replace the strut mount. This begins with removing the seat back cushion and 3 nuts securing the top of the strut mount to the rear body. The bottom of the strut is held on by two 22mm bolts, after disconnecting brake lines and ABS lines.



A spring compressor is required to compress the spring and remove the strut and mount. Please exercise caution since the compressor stores a lot of built up energy when compressed!



This also applies to Toyota Camry, Lexus ES300, Solara, and Avalon.
