Yea rust happens when the parts have a thick coating of sat 8 months out of the year.

No I am not worried about it snapping.

^ HOPEFULLY by the end of the week. Since it was under 1lb, it is not going through custom's, so that should make it a bit faster.

Sweet I just came home from school and it was waiting for me on the table. Now if I can just figure out how to open the package.

^ HAHA! Your lucky this was not one of my 1 off packing jobs! One friend took 20 mins to opoen one of my packages!

by **pwizzle** » Wed Sep 17, 2008 8:18 pm

lol I just had fun popping the bubbles until they were almost gone. Then I just got bored and tried to figure out how to open it. When I opened it and saw the rod, I thought it would be a little bit smaller from the pictures I saw. Oh well, I'll install it tomorrow after I pick up a bushing for the lower part from the store.

by **ASG14** » Wed Sep 17, 2008 8:29 pm

^ Just use the bushing from the OEM Tranny Strut.

Save a few dollars.

Sweet, then I can install it after I eat and I can drive it around in the morning.

On another note, I take it that you work for or used to work for Toyota judging from your personalized address sticker.

by **ASG14** » Wed Sep 17, 2008 8:59 pm

haha, no. I just thought it would be a nice touch, espetially since I had no address labels left. I do hope to be working fo rmy local Toyota dealer in a couple months though.

I;m already an honorary employee as I;m there so often getting parts.

Dude, how the hell do you get the top nut off of the OEM strut? I keep trying to unscrew it but it just keeps spinning.

by **ASG14** » Wed Sep 17, 2008 9:29 pm

There is 2 nuts. You need to hold the lower one while you turn the top (closed top) nut. Both 14mm. Use a wratchet for the top one, and pliers or soemthing for the lower.

how easy is it to install this? If i can install my own springs and struts, this should be a cinch right?

by **ASG14** » Wed Sep 17, 2008 11:18 pm

It's a bit of a pain, but if you can do your own springs, you CAN do this. The hardest part is getting the damn bold off the bottom of it. But that could also just be for me since mine was rusted as I drive in snow. The top 2 nuts are pretty easy to do, as I said above.
