Unfortunately, in order to replace the strut mount bu****ng, the strut
assembly has to come out of the car, and you need a strut spring
compressor
to replace the bu****ng, and an alignment afterwards. Basically, the
labor,
skills, and equipment needed to replace the strut mount bu****ng is the
same
as to replace the strut.
