I just completed this repair on my wife’s 2018 and this video was exactly what I needed. This saved me a lot of time on the passenger side for sure! Thank you much

Great vid. Principal is the same for most vehicles. I've had all 4 replaced on my 10 year-old VW Golf Mk7 with DCC (Dynamic Chassis Control) with 155,000 miles. Except VW use electronically controlled hydraulic adjustable shocks rather than (far) more expensive magnetic shocks used in the vid and on premium Audi's. They're around £150/$187 a pop here in the U.K. compared to the $800 monsters on the GMC truck.

Nice vid! Did this today. Found it a lot easier to remove the tie rod from the knuckle to give more clearance for the strut to drop out!

Thanks! Yeah, it does take a little persuasion to maneuver that strut around the tie rods!

after dropping the strut about half way down into the lower control arm, you can angle it to you and remove up through the upper control arm

I just did a 2018 and I was able to lower the strut down from the top through the upper frame and didn’t have to fight trying to go past the steering linkage and axle and push it up through the bottom
