Changing rear struts on Lumina w/transverse spring?
This is on a 1992 4-door Lumina sedan. The factory manual calls for a rather
large tool that fits across the whole spring to compress it when changing out the rear struts. Has anyone replaced the struts, and do you really need the special tool? Perhaps the spring is slack enough with the wheels drooped that a simple pry bar can pull each knuckle down enough to slip the strut out? -- Dennis |
