- I was experiencing a clunk when turning the wheel, on tight turns and certain other times. I thought it was because of the lift I installed and lived with it. When I had the Jeep in for a software update the dealer said I needed a new strut and "related components". Made sense that it would be the strut mount and that is exactly what ended up needing to be replaced. So I made a project out of it.
Jeep did not make this strut to easily come out and replace. I did the strut mount replacement only on the driver's side. Some say to remove the knuckle, I instead went this route with the spring compressors. A hassle either way but the price was right.

I'm replacing struts in my 2015 Trailhawk, and I'm also gonna do the mounts and bellows while at it to avoid future issues with the new parts causing strain on the old ones. They are not expensive parts as of Aug 2020. Paid about $200 for new struts, mounts with all the needed hardware and retainers, and bellows. The dealer wanted $900 to do the job.
Good. I hope it all goes smoothly!
Pour cette opération on retire l amortisseur complet et après on comprîmes le ressort les enfants sur un établi
i said also the mounts are a bit not heavy gauge ennuf. one right front rusted
Молодец! Приятно видеть, что человек пытается что-то сделать самостоятельно.

Great job, and glad you managed to stay safe!
Thank you!
Hi Mark, just a suggestion, look for a pass through socket set, this way you will be able to align a hex tool into the center of the strut stem. Thanks for the video, much appreciated.
Good tip!
I have a 2014 Cherokee this is an awesome video. Dealer wants 1340 to do this. Not me. Son and son in law
That is a crazy expensive quote. Good luck it will go better with 2 men.
same here. i wanna start. one question. how do i start
Nice job 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
👍
Thanks for the video man! By any chance do you know the torque specs to the top strut nut? I’ve looked everywhere and can’t seem to find anything.
Thanks I'm glad it helped. I don't know the torque specs either. I tightened it firmly and check on it once in a while. I think you would hear it if it ends up being too loose.
Congratulations! Is it possible to remove the mount without compressing the spring? What do you think? Thank you!
I think you would remove the control arm to do it without compressing the springs. More work but maybe easier.
let try this DIY. now My '. 14. shes ready

where did you get the bearings?
I ordered the part from Rock Auto. Strut mount and retainer.
Do you remember what size and thread pitch nut you bought to replace the original one?
I don't. I took what was left of the old one to the hardware store and found the replacement.
Did you also get a rattling sound when driving over multiple small bumps and washboard roads?
It's been a while and it is possible but I don't remember that being part of it.
I do and I can't figure out what's wrong with it. Everything looks good. It's driving me nuts.
Why did u replace them?
The bearings in the mount went bad. There was a grinding coming from them during sharp turns.
Wery job
Part number?
Is a wheel alignement required ?
Most likely it is required. I didn't get one and don't notice any change.
I had my 2017 Jeep Cherokee right side strut mount bearing replaced under warranty (56000KM) I explicitly asked my dealer if a wheel alignment was required, they told me "no". Having said that I really don't put too much faith in the dealerships here in Ontario. Hope this helps!! Good luck !!
