dumb Cirrus bushing question
 

1999 Cirrus has clunking sound in front and after I looked for the cause found that the rubber washer bushing had destroyed itself and the top end of the strut bolt has about 1 inch of travel with no cushioning. My probably dumb question is can front rubber upper washer/ bushing be replaced on my 1999 chrysler cirrus without removing complete strut assembly?

Your out of luck, you have to remove the strut assembly to replace it.

There are no dumb questions.
