Great video you showed what to do on both sides you are the only one that I seen that went through both sides thank you for the video
Thank you again! Much appreciated!!!
I got my fork bolt out just fine, with a lot of back and forth work. But couldn't reinstall them with my new 2 inch spacer on top. Used your method with the fork already installed, and worked like a charm.
Awesome! Thanks for the feedback!
Great video, Thanks what can I do to level my 2008 Jeep Commander Overland 5.7 , I don't like the raked look...thanks
Suspension mod
That's exactly how I just did mine today. That damn clevis bolt was seized and would not come out. I've done this before and if that bolt comes out you take the attire assembly out and swap out the clevis and put it back together. However if you are doing it the exact way I did it and it works out just fine. Takes a a little bit of finesse to get the shock to align with the clevis and that's where a second pair of hands comes into play. Anyhow good video on what to do and how to do it
Thanks, I know, if that bolt doesn’t budge most people would be in trouble. I did 10 of these in the past year and only 2 the bolt came out.
@@Motorcarnut agreed!! That clevis bolt is a time saver...IF it comes out. If not...your video shows the 2 option. That clevis bushing is EXPENSIVE. So like you and I said don't mess with it, go to the 2 option.
Great video! Thanks for being so thorough and showing all the steps!
Question: I've never done this job before, but have heard a spring compressor is needed. Is one needed?
Thanks again!!!!
Thanks! Not if you replace the complete strut like I did in the video. It comes complete with spring already installed and I think the best way to go.
@@Motorcarnut Ahhhh! All this time I've been holding off replacing my front struts because of the spring compression step. Thanks again for the video... I think I'll go order some today. Any brand recommendation on Commander hemi 4x4 struts? I have an 06 w/ 145k miles.
Thanks!!
You can try Detroit Axle, they are affordable and available on eBay or Amazon
Good video. Looks like it raised the front end about an inch and a half. Just waiting on the new strut/spring assemblies to show up for my Commander. It's spongy as heck on the front end and sagging more than the one in the video. Did you get those struts online ?
Thanks! I did. Search Detroit Axle, they are decent.
@@Motorcarnut I ordered from Autosaver88, I believe they are the same units as Detroit Axle.
@@Motorcarnut thank you for the video you are the only one who talks about both sides and what to remove. I bought the complete kit front struts and rear shocks all Monroe from rock auto for like $227.00. I have found they have the best price for my Jeep on parts and I can pick the quality of parts depending on the Job
Thank you bro, appreciate the feedback!
@@Motorcarnut Thanks for responding. The struts arrived this morning and I'll be installing them tomorrow. I'll let you know how it goes.
Buena idea 💡
Thank you!
Заржавел болт крепления амортизатора к вилке. Не смог провернуть рычагом длинной в 1 метр. Но с помощью дрели перфоратора удалось его расшевелить и выкрутить. С помощью перфоратора очень легко выбил шаровую верхнего рычага. Купил стойки амортизатора по 55$ Tokico USA 55553E, такие и стояли с завода. За оригинал просят 400$, хотя это Tokico USA 55553E за 55$.
Great!
On some cars I've done in the past it would require a front end alignment. Can't tell if this is or not?
Well it’s a good idea when you take any steering or suspension parts off to get a realignment. On this particular Jeep hardly any adjustment parts were disturbed so most people won’t go for the realignment.
@@Motorcarnut I agree thanks
Thank you, good point you brought up
