1994 camaro v6 strut
 

I have a strut on frnt driver side that top of strut came out of mount and is to the side.Is there a easy trick fix on this? or do I have to take whole assymble apart.Ofcourse im assuming it is a strut not shock.

It's a shock. ;) You'd have to tear everything apart. Sounds to me like the mount broke where the shock bolts to the mount.

Thanks for the info.
so I prob need a spring compresser.Are there any special tools needed.?
I also noticed these front shocks dont bolt through into eng compart like most cars.looks like you have to take off a plate or something..

Two nuts and two torx head bolts hold it in, if it's original. If it's been replaced once already, two of them will be hex head bolts. You'll need a T50 or T55 bit, I can't remember which size it is off the top of my head. You'll only need that if the mounts are original.

Other than the torx bit and the spring compressor, you shouldn't need any thing else.

Take the two nuts and bolts holding the shock mount off, two down on the lower control arm. You'll also need to remove the nut for either the lower or the upper ball joint, You don't need to do both, just one of them. The hardest part is getting the new spring on the shock. Once that's done, it's really a cake walk.

Thanks for the info,Doesn't sound to bad.Dont think these struts have ever been change.I see the two tork heads and bolts.Looks original,Think ill change both side while im at it.
Thanks again..

Spray everything down with PB blaster or the like. Not too fun if stuff rounds off

Got it, Thanks.Im sure it will be fun.lol
