Finally got around to ordering my new suspension. Figured it was about time since I can't see the top of my rear tires anymore. :nut:

Here's what I've got coming:

Front and rear strut mounting plates from shobros
Front strut bearings from shobros
2xHB5002 & 2xHB5003 Tokico struts from speedyperformanceparts.com
Intrax springs off ebay

Are there any necessities that I'm forgetting or any strongly reccommended parts I should add to the list?

TIA :thumb:

You'll also need new pinch bolts that hold the struts into the hub assemblies. When I took mine out, they were shot. Pretty inexpensive, something like $25 for all four. Good luck.

use lots o penatrating oil on the pinch bolts on the knuckles and if you have to use heat: heat the side of the knuckle that is NOT threaded since this is where the bolt gets stuck.

if your old struts were really shot like mine were i would reccomend replacing the bumpstops (sometimes called bumpers) on the strut, mine were destroyed so i left them out... that was a mistake. they are also very cheap and can be found at any parts store. just the fronts.
