Tires and Wheels problem
2001 Ford Windstar 149000 miles

We have a tire on the passenger front side that keeps losing air and we were told that we needed struts on the front of our 2001 Ford Winstar. We know you have to have a special tool to fix the strut with, but is this a hard job for a non-mechanic to do?
Thanks.

Hi again
Struts are one of the most dangerous parts on a car to replace. there are several special tools to be used.

This is a repair i would have to say no should never be attempted by anyone without the proper training and equiptment.
