I am wondering if everyone that says their suspension is still good really knows. I thought the struts on my Mystique were still ok, well one had started leaking. I didn't know how bad they were until I drove my contour for the first time after the winter this spring. Like I said I thought they were fine but were trashed. when the old ones came out they hardly returned after being compressed. i did the rears one weekend and the fronts the next. best I can put it was I felt like a bobble head figure driving a week with new rear struts and old front ones

now my 99 the struts were better but nowhere as good as the cheap ones I got for the mystique or the Bat struts that went into my 99

of course driving contitions play heavily into this
