Installation is the reverse of removal, noting to raise the trailing arm with a floor jack until it is at normal ride height, then tighten the suspension component bolts/nuts to the specified torque, tighten the brake fasteners to the specified torque, and on AWD models, tighten the driveaxle hub nut to the specified torque. Finally, tighten the wheel lug nuts to the specified torque.

Check the strut body for leaking fluid, dents, cracks, and other damage that may require repair or replacement. Inspect the coil spring for chips or cracks in the coating, which could lead to premature failure due to corrosion, and examine the spring seat for cuts, hardness, and general deterioration.

Remove the piston rod nut using an Allen wrench, then take off the upper suspension support and inspect the bearing for smooth operation, replacing it if necessary. Check the rubber portion of the suspension support for deterioration and replace it if there is any separation. Lift the spring seat and upper insulator from the piston rod, checking the rubber spring seat for damage and replacing it if needed.
