    Exellent presentation. I am down in Merida, Yucatan, Mexico preparing my retirement home and brought down my old 2014 MKT, Livery grade. It needs Struts taht are electroniclly adjustable. The price downhere is $15k pesos which is $850 US currently is an absolute rippoff. I replaced them with a non-electronic strut for $60 US but I am looking to rebuild the old strut. Your presentation was awesome. I will search your channel for content related to my project. You have a new fan. Once I get downhere for my retirement , I may just build a Suspension shot to rebuild these electronic puppies just to beat these thiefs selling a rebuildable item for 10x the price.

    Good video, only problem with my spring seated struts, I ordered a third set of strut assemblies. The strut mount with the three bolts did not fit. The strut mount was installed a little offset. On my 2010 Mazda 6, the strut has a vertical knob that must slide into a yoke, so the 3 bolts on the strut mount has to fit almost pricesly. The strut mount does NOT move at all? Do you sell the tool to compress the spring? I noticed the one I got does NOT even fit. The coils are too close to each other. I am not sure if mine is considered a spring seated strut. Mine does have strut mount installed. Please help A1 AUTO. Love watching Sue.
