This is part 2 of the Honda Element/CRV suspension rebuild. In this video I wrap up the suspension work, get the Element aligned, and take it for a test drive. Was it all worth it? Check out the video to find out.
Because of the depth of coverage in this video, I had to split it into 2 parts. However, if you want to see a full version without ads, it’s available to Premium Members of my website here.
Thanks for watching!
