HOW TO: 2006 Explorer V8 4WD Rear Strut Change

[Headbangerpa]

wow.....first I thank everyone for the great info as I will be doing this next weekend..... except after reading the glorious adventure of Bobmbx (just teasing), I have decided on going the Monroe quick struts; they cost more but the time saving would be worth it as I want to replace both sides.
Thanks again everyone.

Sounds good. I agree and will be doing the same as one of my rears has gone out again. I think I'll change both just so they match as I doubt replacing just one will match the other worn one even if the new ones are at the same spring rate as OE.

One of my rear struts has failed again. I think this time I'll get a full strut/spring/mount assembly from Rock Auto.
