You can Select Your Vehicle to check if 54303-1B025 fits your vehicle.

Check the strut body for leaking fluid, dents, cracks, and other obvious damage that would warrant repair or replacement, and inspect the coil spring for chips or cracks in the coating, as well as the spring seat for cuts, hardness, and general deterioration.

To assess shock absorbers, park the vehicle on level ground with the engine off and the parking brake engaged. Check tire pressures and press down on each corner of the vehicle, observing its movement and rebound. The vehicle should come to rest in a level position within one or two bounces. If it continues to bounce or fails to return to its original position, it may indicate worn or weak shock absorbers. Repeat this test at the other three corners of the vehicle and raise it on jackstands to inspect the front struts and rear shock absorbers for fluid leakage, secure mounting, and damage. Replace the shocks as a set if leakage is found.

The final step is to tighten the nuts to the specified torque.

Signs of wear include leaking fluid, loss of damping capability, or physical damage such as chipped, sagging, or cracked coil springs.
