You can Select Your Vehicle to check if DG1Z-5310-J fits your vehicle.

Inspect the shock body for leaking fluid, dents, cracks, and other damage which would warrant replacement. Check the coil spring for chips or cracks in the spring coating and the spring seat for cuts, hardness, and general deterioration. If any undesirable conditions exist, proceed to the shock absorber/coil spring disassembly procedure.

Ensure the steering is unlocked. Loosen the strut upper mounting nuts but do not remove them. Loosen the wheel lug nuts, raise the vehicle and support it securely on jackstands, then remove the wheel. Have an assistant depress the brake pedal, then remove the driveaxle/hub nut. Remove the brake disc, separate the tie-rod end from the steering knuckle, and detach the stabilizer bar link from the strut. Detach the wheel speed sensor harness from the strut, remove the bolt, and pull the wheel speed sensor from the steering knuckle. Separate the control arm balljoint from the steering knuckle. Using a front wheel hub remover, press the driveaxle from the hub splines. Remove the upper mounting nuts and remove the strut and steering knuckle as an assembly.

Only loosening the fastener is required.
