Started assembly and installation of the right front strut.Amazing to me how much puzzling I did on this. Back and forth to the manual, trying to be sure I didn’t miss anything, or bolt something together that was semi permanent, backwards. Like the steering knuckle to the ball joint. Took a bit of puzzling to realize that the accordian like rubber grommet in the photo only fits the old strut and not the new one, so have to leave it out.

First trial fit. Actually did end up tightening the strut nut on the end, and had to take it off again. Manual shows a dust shield between the top spring mount and the strut mount. So I took it apart and made one out of cork.

Got the lower A arm and steering knuckle attached, once the strut was hanging.
