Allright guys, last question i promise then I'll quit asking questions. Talked to my dad last night and he strongly recommended me replacing the struts with the springs becuase of the mileage (53000) and age too. It makes sense I guess to me even though I really don't want to spend the extra money, its probally better now when I have it apart vs. taking it apart later. My question is should I go ahead and replace the strut with the springs too? If so, do I need anything else besides the strut like the strut mount or anything like that? thanks for all the help and I'll leave ya guys alone after this! (unless I have some serious installation probs)
