Check for spring sag by checking the ride height at all four corners and then inspect each spring after removal from the old strut; if all is well it can probably be reused.
Its a 98 with roughly 86,000 miles on it. I've noticed a creaking sound from back there after I go over harsh bumps exactly what I imagine a rusty old spring would sound like.
