Help me! I am having my new spring and struts installed soon and would like to do the front and rear strut mounts also. Problem is no one has them in stock so its a "special order" and i want the parts before they start ripping my car apart. I asked for price quotes and i seem to get something different everytime.
napa (first call)
front ~20 each
rear ~40 each
stealership (first call)
~28 each (front and rear)
napa (second call)
front ~40 without bearing/~82 with the bearing, but have to these from the dealership
rear "we have none on record" (as if they are none existant)
stealership (second call)
are they rubber or metal?
front ~85 (dont know if thats with bearing or not)
rear ? (never got a definitive answer)
Can someone tell me what exactly it is i need (part numbers would be nice)? A description?...i read somewhere the front is rubber and the rear is metal, but i dont know what to believe now. Do i need bearings...how do you know they are bad without taking them out first?
I dont mind spending the money but i wanna spend wisely.
Help please!!!
