How to disassemble and reassemble a strut and spring assembly on 2002 through 2008 Toyota Solara?

If the struts or coil springs show signs of wear such as leaking fluid, loss of damping capability, or physical damage, explore all options before starting any work, as strut/shock absorber assemblies are not serviceable and must be replaced if issues arise. Strut assemblies with springs may be available on an exchange basis, which can save time and effort, so check the cost and availability of parts before disassembling the vehicle. To disassemble, remove the strut and spring assembly, mount it in a vise lined with wood or rags to prevent damage, and avoid excessive tightening. Install a spring compressor according to the manufacturer's instructions to relieve pressure from the upper spring seat, which can be verified by wiggling the spring. Loosen the damper shaft nut, then remove the nut and suspension support, inspecting the bearing for smooth operation and checking the rubber for deterioration. Remove the upper spring seat and insulator from the damper shaft, checking the spring seat for damage. Carefully lift the compressed spring from the assembly, ensuring safety by keeping the ends pointed away from the body, and slide off the rubber bumper. Inspect the lower insulator for wear and replace it if necessary. For reassembly, if replacing the lower insulator, position it correctly and extend the damper rod to install the rubber bumper. Place the coil spring onto the lower insulator, ensuring proper fit, then install the upper insulator and spring seat, aligning the flats on the damper shaft with those in the spring seat. Align the OUT mark of the upper spring seat with the upper insulator mark, ensuring the arrow on the spring seat faces the lower bracket for front struts. Install the dust seal and suspension support to the damper shaft, then install the nut, tightening it to the specified torque if applicable. Finally, install the strut/spring assembly, tightening the damper shaft nut to the required torque for models with electronic modulated suspension.
