Bent Strut

[JesusFreak]

Took the car to shop for very bad alignment problem, I bent my front drivers strut. Problem is: I have a Koni Adj Sport Kit. Koni wants 375 for new front struts, and CTA wants 215 each for front struts. BAT wants 175 each for them... Does anyone know where I can find them cheaper?

if you bought the Koni's see if Koni will warranty them.

Called Koni the day I found out, no warranty covered on them, warranty doesnt cover bending!

how many miles on the koni's. Can you just replace the bent one at $175 + shipping from ajusa.com.

I have about 75K on the konis, so i dont think I shoudl replace just 1?!

I'm kinda in the same boat... a body shop says my passenger front Koni is bent.

I either have to find 1 used strut, or replace all 4. Or leave it and let the tire wear out real quick.

How TF do you end up bending a strut???? The rods on those Koni struts is extra thick too! If you bend a strut, wouldn't you also bend the control arm or sup'm like that??
