    An inexpensive repair manual at a parts store can help you. Would be hard to explain to you here except that there will be one at the firewall, one near the rad and others at the trans.

    If you remove the left front wheel,one is visible along the top of the frame,just ahead of the strut.That's the one that failed on my 2002-rusted away to nothing.
