You are welcome.
Would you also recommend replacing the control arms/ball joints and sway bar links while you're in there? In addition to the struts/shocks and brakes, what other suspension components would you recommend replacing at this point in the age of the vehicle while you're doing this work?

I usually inspect them while working on it but I personnally dont replace them if they are in good condition. It really dont make any damage if you do, because you already have everything disassembled. That will be more at your discretion.

@@mundothefixitallguy4687 Thanks for the clarification. If I do want to replace all that stuff while I have it disassembled, is there anything else I should also replace while I'm in there? Axles? upper control arms? etc?

I like to check for play at control arm bushings too. They usually become a headache when trying to align the car. Like I say before, inspect everything, if it is good I would leave it unless it is bad. Usually the links are bad like the one you saw in the video.
Perfect thanks!

Going to be doing this soon, I see you replaced one of the bolts where it attaches to the knuckle - do you happen to know what size or part # for the bolt? or did your struts come with them?

Bolt PN: 54645-2E100 Nut: 62618-1F000 The reason I replaced them was because it had an eccentric bolt installed on it. Those are the part numbers I used to get them replaced. Dont forget to double check if they apply to your car before purchase them.
What brand of struts and shocks you recommend?

I bought those ones in Autozone. They came as a complete assembly and have lifetime warranty. Also, the price was very competitive.
