thanks, great idea for a tool I hope not to need often.

SVXGIRL: my SVX friend above produced a very good description of how to change the struts. Print this out and see if it's something you/he thinks can be done at home given your skill level. see reference below:

The how-to is pretty long. Don't let that scare you. The length is only because I added many tips and details. A single front strut (or a pair as lee suggests, and I suggest), can easily be installed in an afternoon provided you have the required tools.
