I replaced my rear struts on my '98 with nice used struts at around 80,000 miles. I replaced part numbers 3 & 10. I probably could have reused #3 which were under $10 each, but, #10 were badly dry rotted and practically crumbling. For some reason, they were quite expensive at over $40 each. But, it would have been foolish to have kept the old ones. The job was not real easy, so it makes sense to do what's needed while you are in there. The used struts have worked out fine. I have purchased a pair of low mileage used struts for the front which I have not yet installed. I've read that the fronts are quite a bit easier to change than the rears.
