Ordered Struts

[MorpheusGPR]

I went to advanced auto today and ordered some struts. Went with the monroe-sensatracs since the others I mentioned have a bad rap right now.

I will have a mail in rebate for buy 3 get 1 free to take care of.

Seeing as my strut mounts are probably worn I went to rockauto and orderd strut mounts for all 4 corners. That cost me another 165 bucks or so...ouch!

After all this, the thing had better be done for a while. I had thought about doing some moog springs, and tie rods, ball joints etc but I think that will have to wait so I can pay some other **** off.

If there is any way you can swing it financially, I would really try to get some new springs now. It is kind of a PITA to disassemble/reassemble the strut/spring/mount assembly, and if you can go ahead and do the springs too, you will be totally done with that portion of the suspension, instead of having to tear it down again to replace the springs in the near future.

Moog's are fairly cheap, and are a good combo with the M/S's. Or really any strut..
just gotta cut off 1 coil, for stock ride height.

really depends on your springs right now... how many miles on the car?

About 132k on the car. Moog springs are the ones I was looking at, actually. I am not looking to lower it really I like the height now.

I did order new mounts from rockauto, cost more then I thought but that should help corners alot too I would think.

Cheap place to buy the moogs? Ebay does not seem to have them.
