What are the front struts on a 1998 Nissan Pathfinder?
The front struts on the 1998 Nissan Pathfinder are gas charged coil-over struts. This means the coil spring attaches to the strut, and the strut uses a gas charge to soften the ride of the vehicle as you travel.
How do you attach a strut to a pathfinder?
Secure the top of the strut to the strut tower with the nut, socket and ratchet. Place the wheel onto the rotor, secure it with the lug nuts and lower the Pathfinder to the ground. Duplicate the process with the strut on the other side of the front end.
How do you replace a coil spring strut?
Remove the bolt that holds the coil spring cover plate onto the strut using a socket and ratchet. Pull the cover plate and the spring off the old strut. Place the spring and the cover plate onto the new strut. Tighten the cover plate, and then remove the spring compressors from the spring.
