Hi. You'll need a 17mm socket and wrench. A screwdriver or something to remove the clip from the brake hose and a 15mm wrench to hold the back of the stabilizer link. The 17mm socket will be used to remove the top bolt and the stabilizer bolt and the 2 bolt and nuts holding the strut. Oh, remove the tire first. Hee.

no, just replaced mine, springs are independent of shocks and struts

good news is it can be changed with no tools in about 2 minutes. just take out the glove box and the cover comes off easy.

you need to replace only the shock cartridges. Also have the tires rebalanced.
