I know that she wasn’t working on the brakes but the rotor is installed on the wrong side of the vehicle. I replaced my struts yesterday without removing my inner fender wells but it looks like it would make it easier to access the top of the struts. This is a good instructional video.

Here’s my feedback:
My vehicle is a 2016 Cadillac Escalade with front shocks that were completely done to the point where the ride was so rough it felt like a Roman Charriot. It would bounce a lot too.
1. The front shocks from 1AAuto worked on my vehicle.
-no check engine lights
-easy
-plug and play
2. The reason why she takes off the inside fender skirts is because her vehicle is on a lift.
If you’re doing this in your garage, just pop the hood and you’ll have easy access to the top 3 bolts.
3. The shocks fixed all my issues and you can tell a huge difference.
4. The only issue I did have was needing an extra hand to help me position the shocks while I pull the control arms down.
I’ll try to remember 6 months from now to give an update on how the shocks are holding up

+@dailyrevs1320 Thanks for watching our video! 1aau.to/m/Shop-TRQ

[@desireethomas1916]

Great video! Love also that was a female that did the work. I am a female and can’t afford to go to shop so I have to figure it out on my own.

[@elgil3274]

Nice work very well explained. Thank you

[@eliaasmer6656]

Guys no need to take the fender liner off , also a 18 mm wretched wrench works better , this are aftermarket struts the ride won’t feel as the OEM ones so u get what u paid

[@bgmspacejam]

I just installed these yesterday on my 2015 Yukon Denali. The ride quality still hasn’t improved. I don’t have a service suspension light on the dash but the the ride quality is the same as with the busted struts. What do you think is wrong?

[@drj1967]

Buyer beware. I replaced my struts on my 2016 Yukon Denali with TRQ struts with magnetic ride. For some reason, the front struts seem to bounce a lot while driving. I noticed the spring coils on the TRQ are much thicker than stock. Honestly, I haven't been happy with them. I am not sure what to do. I think I am going to have to bite the bullet on the money paid for the install and send them back. If someone has any suggestions, I sure would appreciate it.

[@johnorozco7580]

I bought all 4 those shocks and i replaced tahoe 2016 how can reset the suspension control module the ride now is much better but i still have a bouncing

[@eddie6894]

Are your TRQ struts for the magnaride and do they have the magneto-rheological fluid in them.

[@tearsbeers]

Are these Magnaride? How long will they last? I have had a 2016 and 2020 escalade ESV and the OEM struts seized on both at 70-80k miles

[@sergiobecerra5633]

What kind of problems causes the struts when they go out?? I have 2015 and is really bumpy

[@achap3604]

Is there a switch that needs to be turned off before removing strut?

[@chuckcts-v3460]

Why didn't you remove that large sticky tag from the top of the strut?

[@richardramos8585]

Where you bought the torque you use it's digital

[@samaltman8901]

You took that fender liner out for no reason lmao
