[s-cars] S-car strut insert question...

[Eric Phillips]

Gents:

Let's just say you're replacing the front inserts in your S-car.
Let's also say that the reason you think they failed was torn shock
boots.  You know you can replace the inserts from on top, without too
much hassle, and that it can be done quickly if you have a clue.

But what about the boots?  Can they be replaced from on top as well?
Or some other way that would NOT require the entire disassembly of the
struts?

TIA,

Eric
