I was wondering if anyone had any info on changing the front struts on a 1991 pontiac grand prix. How hard is it? What tools are needed? instructions on how to do it would be great. Thank you.

Here's some general info: jack, jack stands, a decent set of wrenches, mini sledge hammer or big ball peen. Now, unless you are putting in a complete pre-assembled strut assembly, you will need a spring compressor.
After removing the wheel, brake caliber and rotor, remove the 2 big bolts at the bottom of the strut then the 3 little ones at the top. (I believe the sway bar is connected to the LCA on 91's so you won't have to dis-connect it) The strut assembly comes out and reverse steps for the new one. Hope this gives you an idea of what's invloved (I left out all the details).
