Remove Front Strut 1992 Buick La Saber?
under the hood there is a bolt on the strut tower do not take it off until you have the spring compressed outside the car. There should be three bolts that hole the strut bar if you have one on top of the strut tower. after you jack the car up you have to take the two bolts holding the spindle to the strut. i believe it is a 22mm head on the bolt and a 24 mm nut take the nut off then try hammering the bolt out after taking both bolts out the A arm can swing down. take the three nuts off under the hood and take the strut out from under the car. compress the spring with a spring compressor and remove the nut from the top of the strut. the whole spring should slide off then all you have to do is put it back together
How do you replace front coil spring ford escort 98?
To replace the strut you have to jack up the car on the side you want to do and take off the wheel. Then, take it loose from the strut tower on the top. There are 3 or 4 nuts. Then take it loose from the steering knuckle on the bottom. The whole strut assembly lifts out. To replace the coil you have to have a strut compressor. It compresses the coil spring so the top of the strut can come off. Once the top of the strut is exposed the coil can be taken off the strut.

The front McPherson struts. The rears hardly ever need replacing. To change the strut you first jack up the car and put stands under it. Take the clip off holding the brake line to the strut. Move it aside. Then take the two bolts and nuts off the bottom of the strut. Then, take the 3 nuts off of the top of the strut from inside the engine bay. Life the strut out. Installation is the reverse of these steps. If you have this done you should have the front end aligned.

You do not have to remove the strut. You have to take the pressure off the spring. To do this put a jack under the lower control arm and lift until the spring compress's then under the hood on top of the strut is a nut remove the nut and then carefully and slowly let the jack down , this will relieve the pressure on the strut and spring alowing you to remove the control arm safely. And always use jack stands to support the car.
