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.
