The Vibe's original rear struts are finally going at 125,000 miles and noticed that Monroe finally makes quick struts for it.
I really want to do this job myself as I have received quotes of 600-750 to install the two rear struts, most of which is labor costs.
I can get both rear quick struts for $265.00, and if I can install them it would save a bunch of money.
Is this job something a beginner could accomplish with the quick struts? Since one does not to have compress a spring it seems pretty straightforward. The most difficult thing I have done car wise is perform a brake job, replace an intake gasket, and put on a new belt tensioner on my Vibe.
