NOTE: Carefully support
the front knuckle to avoid
placing strain or load on
the brake line.
1.
Remove the plastic cover off the upper 24mm locking nut,
and with a 24mm socket, remove the nut. Now thread it
back on a few threads by hand
2.
Place vehicle on jack stands.
3.
Carefully remove black plastic lug nut covers
4.
Remove wheels. Mark location of wheels to put back in
the same location for tire pressure sensors.
5.
The picture on left shows the OEM assembly on the
passenger side front.
6.
Disconnect the sway bar end link from the sway bar.
7.
The ABS wire and brake line clip need to be disconnected
from the strut. The brake line has a 10mm nut.
8.
The ABS cable is mounted to the front of the strut and
needs to be pulled off the bracket.
9.
Remove the 24mm clevis bolts
10.
Note there is a hole for a camber adjuster bolt. GM does
not use it. Camber is adjusted by loosening the clevis and
moving the strut in/out. A M10 X 1.5 X 40MM bolt can be
used but make sure you add a thread lock material so it
cannot come out and make contact with the wheel/tire.
Seat the bolt before the strut is removed. Once removed,
add 1.5 turns to the bolt.
11.
With on hand holding the strut remove the 24mm nut you
loosened in step 1. Note that you must have 1 hand on the
strut so it does not drop and possibly chip any paint.
Please note the hole in the center of the front shaft in the
front. If you do not have an impact gun, then a tool must
be installed into the shaft to hold the shaft, and then use a
24mm wrench to remove the nut. The nut is a high
interference fit to keep it from backing off.
