In my opinion: Wouldn't waist time rebuilding struts & go with a complete unit. You pay more, but you don't get squeaks from reused preset expended parts that seem good. Also worth mentioning, Kia has the worst suspension springs making for bouncy rides past 55 MPH. Best to get springs made from a reputable vendor that uses American made springs if possible. Korean steel does the job, but is nowhere on par with American manufacturing standards. You'd want the best replacement parts for any Kia being OEM is so terrible.

Doing just the strut is just fine if you have the equipment to disassemble the strut assembly. But if your a DIYer its way easier to just purchase the full strut assembly and skip that disassembly process.

On a 2017 Tacoma there’s an option that you can see on a screen of each tire and how much pressure is in each tire. Well that screen on my truck showed the pressure of each tire but just the other day each tire in that visual screen doesn’t show any pressure numbers for any of my tires. I’m lost. Any one know why I’m having this problem

Just got a camry and the passenger cv axel was replaced by previous owner but must’ve not done something right. The axel is still shiny and new looking but when you try and put it in gear it makes a grinding noise and won’t pull. But if you play with the steering wheel going side to side and keep putting in gear sometimes it’ll go for a couple feet and then stop and make the grinding noise again. Any help is appreciated

After my daughter caught a curve with right front tire, alignment was completely thrown off. Bent tie rod end and was told that the right strut is also bent. The shop was able to realign the front, but camber is still visually quite off. Two part question here; 1) would you suggest an "Easy strut assembly" 2) Should I replace both sides of the struts and tie rod ends? 2010 Kia w/124,000 miles.

Very simple, very easy, until you try to put it back in. Good grief. Live and learn….40 minutes later, I have figured it out. Turn the crank clockwise barely and the tensioner will slip right in. Start the nuts. Tighten and hope you don’t strip the stud or the nut. Oh, and when you turn the crank clockwise at the end of the procedure, make sure the car is in neutral. It won’t turn if the car isn’t.
