Struts cannot be refilled or rebuilt. However, some struts have a replaceable cartridge. These repairable struts can be identified by a large hexagonal-shaped nut at the top of the strut body. Remember that struts are usually gas-charged and that replacement should only be performed by a qualified technician.
