Toyota Repair: Changing McPherson struts on Toyota Camreys, toyota camrey, mcpherson struts


Question
Is there any written instructions on how to properly go about changing Toyota Camrey McPherson struts?

I've perfomed this job on other makes of cars before, so I'm thinking this shouldn't be too much different.

Is there a "Chilton's" type of instruction book or website that I can hit before I start this job to hopefully make it go easier? Anything special I need to know about this specific to Toyota?

Thanks for the help.

Answer
If there is a spring compressor available it's pretty straightforeward, replace the upper strut mounts also as they are prone to make noises, if it has ABS disconnect the brackets on the abs wires from the inner fender or you will stretch and break them.
