google the same question but add in the auto yr make and model. u will need access to a shop manual for your auto and some tools. jack, jack stands, strut spring compresser and some wrenches rachet and sockets would be nice.

try the google and see what u can find. alot of the time u can get all the info for a repair u need. the basics of a strut are the same, its the small differences that can bite u in the but and make a fun project into a hassle. a good public library will have some repair manuals.
