  Q: How do you remove a strut on Honda Ridgeline?

  A: To remove the strut, loosen the wheel lug nuts, raise the vehicle, and remove the wheel. Disconnect the stabilizer bar link and brake hose bracket from the strut. Detach the ABS speed sensor wiring harness and remove the strut-to-knuckle nuts and bolts. Separate the strut from the Steering Knuckle and remove the strut and spring assembly. Mark the struts as left or right if both are being removed. Inspect the strut for damage and the coil spring for chips or cracks. If issues are found, disassemble the strut. To install, guide the assembly into the fender well and secure with nuts. Reattach the brake hose bracket, speed sensor wiring harness bracket, and stabilizer link. Install the wheel, lower the vehicle, and tighten the lug nuts. Finally, check and adjust the front wheel alignment if necessary.
