Oh, and be sure to get lots of PB Penetrating fluid......those knuckle bolt's and stabilizer bolt get rusty! I ended up getting a new strut with mount premounted because where the mount mounts to the strut was all rusted off. I even tried to weld a big washer to keep it in place, but no go. Plus, the whole new strut with mount wasn't a whole lot more than just the mount. The only spring you need to worry about is the single leaf that goes from tire to tire. There is a trick to relieving the spring tension...there is a rubber figure 8 bumpstop that puts pressure on the strut. There is a hole on the top of this mount for you to compress this rubber mount. Most new struts include the bolt that fits this "unit" and sure as heck helps for making this job a lot easier. The problem......rust gets built up in this threaded hole.....use PB. It's hard to explain, but once you see it, you'll know what I'm talking about.
