Default Strut Bearing Removal

Anyone come up with a method to replace the strut bearing without pulling the whole assembly out of the car?

Default Magic????? or a torch

There is no way you can replace the bearings withough removing the strut unless you have a very good magic wand. You could cut the metal away from the top of the strut with a cutting torch, but that sorta defeats being able to use the car. If you find a magic wand that works, please let me know as I have some tough jobs to do.

Default There is one way...

but it's just a variation of the "torch" method. I think you might be able to drop the assembly and sneak it out if you remove the fender. :-/
