VW New Beetle - Front Strut Assembly Replacement

Changed the front struts and bushings in the beetle due to loud thumping while driving. The design is weird having a big rubber bushing that will overtime distort the shape from the weight of the car on it, causing a gap between the top hat of the strut to the strut tower. You can purchase the rubber bushing and bearing as a kit if that is all you wanted to change, which would save money, but I decided to also change the strut assembly also since the car already has 150K + miles. Hopefully this video helps you.
