150,000 miles and new suspension

Hello everyone,

I am finally getting these coil overs i bought months ago installed. the car is just shy of 150,000 miles.

While I am replacing the struts with the coil overs what else should I replace?




Thanks
Gary

Since you are spending the $ for the coil-over install and an alignment, I'd take the opportunity to replace any other worn part that effects alignment, such as ball joints, tie rods, suspension bushings, etc. It would be a shame to have to take it apart again in a few months.

Which coil-overs are you doing?

Also, be sure to report back with your impressions when she's back on the road...
