1. Install the following components to the strut:

1.1.	The lower insulator (9)

1.2.	The spring bumper (7)

1.3.	The coil spring (10)

1.4.	The upper insulator (6)

1.5.	The spring seat (5)

1.6.	The dust seal (4)

2. Mount the strut assembly into the J 34013-B using the J 34013-88 .



3. Compress the coil spring (10).

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

4. Install the strut rod piston nut and hold the strut rod, at the top, from turning.

Tighten
Tighten the strut rod piston nut (2) to 75 N·m (55 lb ft).

5. Install the dust cap (1).
6. Release the compressed coil spring (10).
