lstevens76 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 My suspension is a little bumpy, but at this point I don't want to spend the money unless it is a real need. Advance quoted me around $300 for a set. You're in the US so hop on Rock Auto. A full set of KYB GR2 on rockauto is about $250 + shipping and then you get a $40 rebate when you buy all 4. This does not include upper strut mounts or boots/bellows but I suspect advanced wasn't including those either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottAust Posted April 19, 2015 Author Share Posted April 19, 2015 Yes it would be good to replace the top hats but surprise! In Australia they are over $100 each. It's gett to the point the suspention is going to cost more than the car did ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairtax4me Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Yes the top mounts are very expensive. If the rubber on your original mounts isn't cracked, just re-use them. The rear mounts dont ever really go bad unless rust has eaten them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottAust Posted April 20, 2015 Author Share Posted April 20, 2015 I want to do all this work next weekend so I had a good crawl under the car yesterday to see if I needed any other parts. On the back I am putting new struts and springs, the only other thing that looks worn is the 2 sway bar links so I ordered them. The CV shafts and boots look good so I will swap them side to side. The front left CV boot is ripped which is why it is so stuffed but I am replacing both sides any way. Everything else looks good on the front so with new struts and springs think it will be ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
