HOw To replace Struts and or Springs with pics! DA Integra

Hello Everyone. Here is a How to on replacing Struts and spring
Tools/ Items needed
Torque Wrench
Socket Set
Spring Compressor
Vise Grips
New Struts/ Springs

First of course is pulling the ebrake, raising your car and removing your wheels. I used Jackstands but they are optional.


Second is to remove the 12mm holding the brake line and move the brake line aside


NOw go up and loosen but do not remove the 14mm bolt on the top hat. (Slightly loosen the bolt dont over do it.)


Also Loosen but do not remove the two 14mm bolts holding the strut assembly at the top


Now loosen but do not remove the 14mm bolt at the bottom behind the strut. Shown in the pic below


Place a jack or something under the arm to support it so it doesnt fall and damage something. NOw remove the 17mm bolt at the very bottom of the strut. There is a nut on the other side of this bolt so grab a wrench to hold it while you unbolt it.


NOw go back up and fully remove the 2 14mm bolts holding the strut assembly at the top and now pull the strut. And you should have this or your stock oem assembly of course


NOw Take out your spring compressor, attach and remove the 14 mm bolt at the top hat.


Now start removing and setting aside the washers, top hat, rubber, and spring. Remember the order that they were in for reassembly.


Reassembly is in reverse... And now reassemble your new struts and springs!!!

Your Finished project should look something like this
